Santiago Gil

I’m a multilingual business development and compliance professional with 5+ years building and managing high-value client relationships across legal, finance, and media. I combine consultative outreach, negotiation, and objection handling with a strong bias toward measurable process wins.

In 2022–2024, I founded and scaled Gil Spanish YouTube Translation Ltd. from zero to $7K+ in revenue, personally acquiring and closing 15+ client engagements. I negotiated a contract with HackSmith Industries to serve their 14M+ YouTube subscriber base, while maintaining a consistent 7-day turnaround.

As Founder & Director, I led a remote team of 6 and owned the full client lifecycle—from prospecting and pitching to negotiating scope/price and account management post-close. I focused on clear expectations and fast delivery, building repeat and referral business.

Since 2024, I’ve served as a Compliance Analyst and primary relationship point of contact for 15+ client/matter reviews per day. I drove a cross-functional negotiation process that cut intake-to-close cycle time by 88% (38.0 days to 4.89 days), and I deliver bilingual (English/French) training and presentations to 268+ colleagues while acting as an escalation point for high-priority issues.
