I am a salesman at heart. From my first experience trading in hand drawings to classmates at school, to winning the lucrative account of Emirates Airline’s in-flight retail in my first job and onto more recent multi-million $ contracts with giant institutions such as Nestle and Aramco, I have a passion for closing the deal and ensuring that it adds value to the customers. I've been privileged to work for multinational and Fortune 500 organizations that have shaped my commercial discipline. Having lived in Dubai for all my life has enriched my cultural diversity, which allows me to enjoy leading multicultural teams and find success in building trust based relationships within channel partner networks, across seniority levels. Career specialties: •Setting up and managing regional offices for Fortune 500 multinationals•Diverse background in consumer goods, automotive aftermarket and industrial products•Thorough experience of B2B and B2C sales via both direct and distribution channels •Very deep level of experience in managing key MEA markets (Iran, Saudi, UAE, South Africa, Egypt, Pakistan, among others)
