About me
I am a calm, confident individual who is very self-motivated. I have managed projects with both international companies and local based groups. I worked for Vice as part of the sales team, and have worked more closely with the production for the online platform to Norwich Sound and Vision as well as being part of the team that helped co-ordinate Norwich Fashion week. I enjoy combining both my knowledge on business with creative thinking which I believe to be the best combination for success. Recently I have worked for Wex Photographic, the nation’s leading photographic online retailer. Working as an inbound sales agent and was awarded top salesman of the month twice in the nine months I worked there.
More recently I worked for Cooper Lomaz as a recruitment consultant specialising in I.T. Developers. I completed several deals in the time I was been there, and was recognised by clients and candidates as a trustworthy, honest and deliverable individual.
Since then I have moved in to the telecommunication sector. Mainly specialising in fixed line communications, VOIP and cloud based technologies. Due to my technical sales background, it made and ideal fit to move into an ever-expanding technology industry. I have made a success out of combining my technical and knowledgeable approach with a calm and thorough sales techniques.
I have an extremely strong work ethic and feel this will translate to any field. I am willing to try a new industry in order to broaden my experience and career path.
