Here we go! The opportunitty came to grab extra responsibilities and I'm now the main sales responsible for all of Hellonext, including Portugal, Spain and UK. The team is growing, so feel free to address me directly if you think saving the world for better is for you.

I wasn't expecting it, but I always had for myself that I would only leave the toy industry to embrace one of two industries: automotive (because that's basically what I enjoy the most since I'm 5) or renewable energy (because I truly believe that's the only way for a better world in all of its forms). It turns out there was an opportunitty where I could get both.. Amazing, right?

Loures, Lisbon, Portugal

I was supossed to leave to embrace the new challenge, but to ensure a smooth and solid transition, I've supported the management team for a few months.

Due to my role and my commitment to the company, in June 2021 I've become a Partner.

What a great experience! I've managed teams more than once, but I would say that becoming Head of Sales at Science4you was my first real "leadership" experience managing big teams with a lot of different responsibilities, backgrounds and most of all, expectations. It was truly rewarding to built such a solid team which is now the backbone of Science4you sales power. A team of 10 reporting directly to me and over 40 people reporting to them. A leader of leaders. A true challenge, but most… Show more What a great experience!

Responsible for building the PMO departement as part of Science4you long term strategy to refocus the company. Really good to understand the entire supply chain. Just wished I have had a bit more time to build some “structures”.

My first experience at Science4you. Gave me the time to understand the organization before having too much responsibility.

I believed in the concept back then and I believe it still today. With the rigth team, this startup can definetly be something huge. There is no more room for paper receipts. Digital is the way, and who gets there first with a solid presence will be worth millions. Or billions, like everyone expects these days.Loved the experience to live in Amsterdam. Learned more in three months at Startupbootcamp, then probably in 5 years at university.

Oh, another IT experience. Probably won’t use most of what I’ve learned here, but still, an amazing company with a truly inspiring leader at the wheel in Portugal (Luis Monteiro). Again, specially good for those who seak stady and full of benefits packages. Outstanding conditions and nice people. It just wasn’t my thing. But I met my wife on the elevator, and three kids and a startup later, I left the company for a new challenge.

Bookball is a dream to revolutionize the amateur sports market. Through a community of amateur sports people we aimed to create a peer-to-peer community where everyone is more active and healthy, while having fun.This is my hiden dream to which I think I’ll return one day.

I don’t really know what to say about this 10 months. Learned a bit of SAP MM which probably will never use again. Neverthless, very nice people, cool environment and good for those who look for a stady career.

Portugal & Angola

Classic big 4 consultant. I don’t know how the other 3 are, but Deloitte definetly has many of the brighest professionals I’ve ever encountered. I would say that, professionaly, over 50% of what I am today comes from what I’ve learned in this years. Had an above average progression, but making money in Angola wasn’t my #1 priority. I think I did the rigth thing, but if I had stayed I would probably have my Porsche by now.

Portugal

Tuff job, definetly not for everyone. Doing around 300kms a day to visit customers which don’t really want to be visited. Great sales experience and learning on how to build good professional relationships with everyone. From the security guy to the store director. Great experience, but doing exactly the same for 20 years was not for me.

My first “real” working experience while finishing my masters degree. Really good sales experience, but wanted more.

Portugal & Spain

The dream job of every young boy. Driving over 400hp cars at amazing tracks and being paid to do it. What else?! Unfornately don’t pay enough to make it a living.
