What I'm looking for

I seek a growth-stage company where I can lead operations and commercial strategy, drive P&L improvement, scale processes, and expand enterprise accounts in a collaborative, impact-focused environment.

I am a systems-focused operations and commercial leader with over a decade of experience optimizing workflows, managing complex P&L responsibilities, and driving business and enterprise account growth across multiple regions. I have led strategic and operational transformations, designed performance incentives, built operational systems and processes, and delivered measurable commercial growth including large revenue uplifts and successful B2B/B2G pivots.

My background spans general management, trading operations, consulting, key account management and market entry strategy, with hands-on experience in project delivery, recruitment and training, and risk and P&L mitigation. I am ready to apply executive leadership and growth strategy expertise to a dynamic scale-up environment where I can drive operational excellence and expand enterprise relationships.
