@stephenm
I grow enterprise SaaS revenue through sales, marketing, strategic accounts, and customer expansion.
What I'm looking for
I'm leading Vizrt and NDI's global commercial events portfolio, connecting trade shows, customer summits, partner programmes, and product launches to pipeline, engagement, revenue, and brand priorities. I own a seven-figure events budget and achieved 100% sponsorship sell-through, offsetting approximately 30% of event costs through partner revenue.
Previously, I built global field marketing programmes at NDI across exhibitions, webinars, podcasts, conferences, and partner activity, earning 4.5/5 average partner satisfaction. That strategic and commercial impact led to my promotion to Head of Global Events at group level within 14 months.
At Emotion Mobility, formerly Jimpisoft and CarPro, I owned commercial strategy across Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success for mobility SaaS products. I delivered 25–30% annual new-business growth, reached 125–130% of target, closed €25K–€500K ARR agreements, managed strategic accounts including Europcar, Hertz, Sixt, and Avis, and increased CRM reporting accuracy by 90%.
Across Bolt, Uber, Sanders South Africa, and my co-founded events business, I've built pipelines, won partnerships, expanded accounts, led marketing, and grown e-commerce sales by 700% over 3.5 years. I enjoy combining hands-on commercial execution with positioning, ICP development, customer retention, and international growth.
