Outbound sales leader scaling B2B SaaS and enterprise teams, building inside sales units and driving quota overachievement.
What I'm looking for
I’m an outbound sales leader with 20+ years scaling B2B SaaS and enterprise tech sales teams across EMEA, with strong experience building teams and repeatable outbound motion. I built an inside sales unit from greenfield to 30+ staff, generating $12M+ annual gross margin at Veeam.
I’ve managed a $70M+ revenue book at Dell and consistently delivered 100%+ quota attainment across territories ranging from $2.7M–$20.5M ARR. I’m known for sales script authorship, CRM-driven performance management, and coaching that turns underperforming tactics into quota overachievement.
I’ve led multinational, multilingual teams and owned end-to-end go-to-market messaging for new customer acquisition. Most recently, as a Founder and Business Owner, I design and execute outbound strategies and cold outreach campaigns, write/refine sales scripts, and manage resources to drive measurable client acquisition.
