I am an extremely capable and well qualified Business Development and Relationship Manager, who thrives on leading and assisting a team to success.With a career in sales, management and business development, I am highly experienced in identifying, negotiating, securing and servicing federal & local government, association and private sector accounts within the ACT, and wider national markets. In my current role I focus on working with large group meetings, conferences and events opportunities who have the key point of content here within the ACT.I am genuinely interested in people and their stories. I am well networked in Canberra and have been extremely active in the ACT Chamber of Commerce for over ten years, including 2 x 3 year terms as its Chairman. If I don’t have the answer to something about Canberra I generally know someone that does.I take great interest and enjoyment from helping people achieve their goals and have learnt through my own personal experience that step by step, goal by goal, a thousand tiny steps are what it takes to achieve the set outcomes.I am friendly, outspoken and a genuine team player. I have proven and demonstrable skills in administration, business development, financial, stakeholder management, overall team development and leadership. I hold diplomas in Business Management and Project Management and I am the immediate past President of Canberra Rowing Club, a position I held for 17 years.Please feel free to contact me direct, should you feel my experience could be of assistance in any way.
