I have a strong background in sales leadership, particularly in the high-tech and financial industries.
Over the past decade, I have helped companies grow brand recognition, revenue, and profits in B2B enterprise technology with a strong focus on identity verification services. I have experience leading sales teams of various sizes and successfully managing P&Ls, with a track record of achieving revenue goals as high as €100M. Building genuine connections, motivating sales teams, and fostering trust and confidence with clients are essential components of my success.
