What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a permanent role where I can lead business development and relationship management, improve processes, and grow teams—balancing strategic marketing with excellent customer service to deliver the organization’s goals.

I’m a Business Manager who builds long-term client relationships through business development, strategic marketing, and consistent branch execution. Across pension and customer-facing roles, I focus on client satisfaction, strong communication, and disciplined follow-through.

At OakPensions Limited, I manage and supervise branch teams while driving growth by liaising with state pension bureaus, resolving reconciliation issues, and expanding the client base. I also mentor and coach subordinates in relationship management, ensure branch goals are achieved through clear strategies, and report branch activity to the corporate head office.

Before that, I led business development as a Team Lead at Pensions Alliance Limited and supported key employers and high-net-worth individuals through regular visits, strategic marketing, and industry updates. Earlier, I handled relationship management—ensuring contributions are received, processed, and credited on time—along with reconciliation of unfunded and transitional accounts.

I’ve also strengthened my coordination and customer service capabilities through dispatch work with Lang’s Ventures Inc in British Columbia, where I planned field schedules, coordinated technicians, monitored utilization, and maintained accurate work-order records. I bring a process-improvement mindset to every role, supported by marketing education (B.Sc. Marketing and a Postgraduate Diploma) and ongoing professional development.
