• Experience in executive revenue-generating roles, bringing comprehensive business acumen to account strategies and cultivating ‘win-win’ value propositions.
• A proven record of building and maintaining long-term relationships at senior (CXO and CXO-1) levels. You’re comfortable presenting to C-level executives, and senior business and technology leaders because you know you are persuasive and influential.
• Ability to conceptualise, analyse, and create blueprints for business transformations and present solutions across multiple domains. Creative is your middle name!
