Ruby James is a Senior Sales Manager, Marketing Solutions | Startups + Tech at LinkedIn. She possess expertise in social media, sales, marketing communications, social media marketing, customer service and 50 more skills. She is proficient in Portuguese. Colleagues describe her as "Ruby and I worked together in sales for LinkedIn's Marketing Solutions Organization for several years and over that time I saw her progress at an unprecedented rate through the organization while we shared countless brainstorm sessions which were always hugely additive to my own ability to perform in role. Ruby is the definition of a multiplier and is the type of professional who positively impacts the trajectory of every person she comes into contact with in a given day, both internally and client-facing, because she is a natural leader and relentlessly curious. What I have always admired most about Ruby is that she has an intrinsic motivation to be excellent and an exceptional degree of grit that allowed her to quickly acquire a sharp business acumen early in her career. She’s genuinely motivated by finding out what matters most to her customers and designing solutions that fit their needs, and she somehow is constantly tuned in to all elements of the LinkedIn business even as we scale and grow at rapid speed. The larger an organization gets, the more challenging it becomes for individual contributors to keep track of organizational goals at every level but Ruby somehow was always aligned with key objectives in every initiative she led, big and small. Across all of our AE teams she is a go-to person for all things marketing and LinkedIn-related, and I look forward to seeing her continued success scaling LinkedIn's media business."
