As a Wellington Manager at Hostmann Steinberg NZ, I led a team of sales professionals to deliver growth initiatives and distribution strategies for the leading supplier of printing inks and coatings in New Zealand. With over 29 years of experience in the print sector, I have developed a deep understanding of the market trends, customer needs, and competitive landscape, and leveraged this insight to create and execute strategic plans that enhanced the company's reputation, profitability, and customer satisfaction. My core competencies include sales and distribution management, business development, leadership, customer focus, strategic insight, engaging communication, and confident decision making. I am passionate about providing opportunities for people to learn new skills and play to their strengths and fostering a supportive and collaborative culture within and across teams. I am also comfortable working with people from diverse backgrounds and levels of technical experience and adapting to changing business environments and customer expectations. I am looking for a new challenge where I can apply my skills and expertise to make a positive impact on the organization and the industry.
