What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role where I can improve operations, coach teams, streamline workflows, and drive client-facing growth in a collaborative, mission-driven company.

I am an experienced operations and client-support leader with over 10 years driving projects, managing teams, and streamlining processes across diverse industries. I combine strategic leadership with hands-on execution to deliver reliable results, clear communication, and exceptional client service.

In executive support roles I managed high-level calendar coordination across time zones, confidential correspondence, travel logistics, CRM maintenance, and cross-department alignment that enabled timely decision-making and smooth operations.

In sales and commercial roles I led national sales efforts, developed branding and marketing strategies, and delivered strong growth—including achieving a minimum of 300% sales growth per annum in a regional product line while managing sales, marketing, and technical teams.

I am proactive at identifying operational gaps and introducing productivity tools and optimized workflows to improve team efficiency, support business development, and ensure consistent client outreach and compliance for government-related engagements.
