What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that challenges my sales skills and offers opportunities for growth in a supportive environment.

I am a motivated and proactive sales professional dedicated to seizing opportunities and achieving excellence in every endeavor. With a relentless focus on continuous improvement, I am driven to expand my expertise in sales and marketing to boost revenue growth and exceed targets. My experience includes roles in various sectors, where I have consistently outperformed sales goals and built strong relationships with clients.

In my current role as a SEN Sales Consultant, I have successfully onboarded numerous Special Educational Needs schools, fostering strong partnerships and delivering above-target results in permanent staffing revenue. My previous positions have also allowed me to set benchmarks for performance, such as securing over 10 meetings in a single week as a Sales Development Representative. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively and maintain high engagement levels, ensuring that I contribute positively to my team's success.
