In 2012, after 15 years working in tourism in South Africa, I decided that I wanted to "promote Africa from outside Africa" - my 4 year "plan" turned into a perment home in Switzerland.In my Product Management career, I have focused on building "partnerships with integrity". This is important for successful key account management - and is something I have enjoyed implementing over the last decade where I have been responsible for contracting directly with over 100 Hotels and DMCs in 15 countries. My inter-cultural communication skills have resulted in many mutually beneficial business partnerships.I am looking for new opportunities where I can use my key account management, product management and communication skills. It would be exciting to use my skills in a new part of the broader tourism industry - new destinations or in hotel & supplier marketing, for example.It brings me joy to interact with professionals from all around the world - and to find ways to work closely together.
