I’m a strategic brand & sales specialist driving growth, retention, and market share.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-oriented Brand & Sales Manager with +15 years of international experience across Retail and Technology. I build measurable commercial impact by developing business initiatives, optimizing market share, and increasing revenue through strong account execution and long-term client relationships.
In my current Senior Key Accounts role, I execute commercial strategy to meet account KPIs and drive retention and upselling across managed B2B accounts (600+ stores in 35 countries). I track performance via BI analytics, support data-driven decision making, oversee recurring invoicing and aged receivables with Finance, and report quarterly outcomes to C-suite to co-define strategy.
I’m known for a “zero-churn” mindset—nurturing loyalty, strengthening customer satisfaction, and identifying expansion opportunities through stakeholder networking. I also manage complex project scopes, technical requirements, and timelines aligned with global SLAs, translating commercial needs into product and operational deliverables through close collaboration with Product, DevOps, and Data teams.
Earlier, as an e-commerce & business development manager (Co-Founder), I founded a sustainable/bio-degradable seasonal fashion platform and led the full end-to-end business—from building the platform and brand to production—driving sales, marketing, and partnerships. I also introduced a product-driven digital marketing strategy that doubled annual gross sales for four consecutive years and launched a B2C customer loyalty program that increased online sales by +17%.
