As an executive in the business development team, I lead the efforts to build long term relationships with enterprises and organizations that require professional translation and localization support to meet their demand for scale and speed. I concentrate on supporting clients in legal & regulatory, climate change & sustainability and cybersecurity & data protection sectors. Each of these industries have a unique set of requirements related to language and terminology and we ensure that your message resonates with your clients, staff, suppliers and audiences in these industries while reflecting your organization's tone and voice.I work with my partners and colleagues in client organizations to:- Understand the nature of their business, identify real world issues affecting them- Analyse their pain points with my team, offer them realistic solutions- Ensure their end-client or beneficiary actually benefits from the language outputI do this by keeping things simple, focused and putting myself and my team in the shoes of the end-user because at the end translation and localization efforts are about making someone's life easy not about transforming words.***FY2023/4 Sales Quota Exceeded
