Conceiving, developing and executing the strategies and initiatives that drive revenues, growth, competitive market positioning, profits and shareholder value, is what I do best. Throughout my career, in Sales Positions, Marketing positions and Project management, within diverse industries, I have earned a track-record of success in managing complex business initiatives and achieving exceptional rather than expected results like:
Increased 10% to 20% client portfolios contrary to a falling market for a Securities and Investment Firm
Increased sales by 100% each year of the branch of a Vocational Training centre 3 years in a row
Achieved goals of turn-over and lead to profitability within one year of a Home & office furniture production and trading company
Accomplished within the record time of four and a half (4,5) months the complete authorization, certification and legalization by the Hellenic Capital Market Commission and all other authorities for a Securities and Investment Firm
Accomplished in the record time of 6 months complete preparation and start of doing business for a newly founded Securities firm.
I have been characterised as an expert closer and as an executive who possesses the experience, capabilities and judgement for taking a business to its next level of success or resolving the deficiencies that impede its ability to grow and prosper.
I am a doer who is highly skilled in visualising and executing a plan and doing whatever it takes to deliver, driven by challenge and undaunted by obstacles, accustomed to and effective in high-profile management roles and making high-stakes decisions. My management style can be described as “hands-on” and decisive, yet flexible. I value and reward creative thinking, initiative, teamwork commitment and performance. Beyond and above all I am a people’s person.
Also, I have lived for extensive periods of time for studies and work in different continents such as Africa (Nigeria), North America (USA) and Europe. The experiences I have gained from each different continent in combination with working for diverse industries (Financial, Manufacturing, Media, Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals, Real Estate, Franchising, Home Furnishings, Vocational training, Non Profit,etc.) have equipped me with the skills to easily handle diversity and multicultural environments in both the social and professional aspects.
I am confident in my ability to learn quickly, to put to productive use my newly acquired knowledge and to meet & exceed expectations.
