I have been involved in international business for over 15 years, most of which in the wine industry. I am a motivated, diligent and driven professional who has gained exposure to account management, contract management, business development, strategic business planning, sales, marketing and promotions, and more. Throughout the years, being in business account management has enabled me to delve into the importance of effective strategy formulation for business growth and opportunities. This is a by-product of the experience I have gone through that also enabled me to acquire knowledge and skills in sales analysis and market strategy formulation. Likewise, I always employ my business acumen, relationship building, communication and negotiation skills. These are particularly necessary in business development and commercial trading to establish new business and close contracts with clients or key partners. Moreover, I am committed to driving account growth through collaborative leadership, effective stakeholder management, business improvement and opportunities for higher profitability. With an innate talent for reputation management and stakeholder relations, coupled with a high customer and quality service focus, I constantly identify opportunities to grow the customer base and build positive relationships with new clients whilst maintaining to be strategic and analytical when finding solutions to problems to ensure maximum client satisfaction.I am commercially minded, analytical and solution-focused on business growth, with exceptional drive and enthusiasm.
