Personal Profile
A highly successful business professional with over two decades of sales experience. I have excellent
knowledge of sales management and commercial planning & analysis.
In the last 18 months of my time at DHL Express I augmented my capabilities through taking on a
significant operations leadership role.
My last role was as a regional manager of a specialist events logistics company. Following some on
going financial challenges I was made redundant following a restructure in February 2015.
I am currently looking for a stimulating & rewarding new challenge. Opportunities that I am keen to
either explore include customer facing senior commercial roles where I can use my knowledge &
skills to drive revenue through relationship building & a customer centric ethos or a role that utilises
my passion for leading teams to deliver great results.
