An articulate and creative business development manager with a career focus on IP development, project management and marketing. Previously I have worked in large-scale FMCG and sports services businesses in Australia and Europe. More recently I have focused on development of intellectual property and brand assets as a value driver in the food sector. I have experience leading teams and managing business units. At my core I am a creative problem solver. I enjoy the challenge of understanding the problems which constrain a business and developing new lines of thought to see a team or business succeed.Specialties: Marketing and sales; brand development; contract negotiation; intellectual property commercialisation; financial management; strategic planning; team leadership
