Jack in a few words
I’m an experienced Senior Sales Leader with over a decade of hands-on experience in sales and marketing spanning diverse sectors including logistics, SAAS, and hospitality across the UK.

Throughout my career, I have consistently delivered on promises and built trust with both colleagues and customers. This commitment to excellence has resulted in significant turnover increases and surpassing financial targets.

In various leadership roles such as National Sales Manager, Director, UK Sales Manager, and Regional Sales Manager, I have honed my skills in team management, leadership, and mentorship, consistently driving results and encouraging a culture of success.

My forte lies in sales strategy development, where I excel in designing and executing tailored strategies to meet the unique needs of different industries, driving revenue growth and expanding market presence.

Client relationship management is another area of strength, where I excel in building strong relationships to ensure client satisfaction, loyalty, and improved retention rates. I collaborate seamlessly with internal teams to align sales activities with overarching business objectives.

I have a proven track record in developing strategic partnerships and initiating large-scale preferred supplier contracts, leveraging digitalisation opportunities to enhance service offerings and drive business growth.

I am a skilled project manager, who can oversee new product development projects to ensure successful execution and maintain high client satisfaction scores.

With a strong focus on financial management, I have effectively managed profit and loss (P&L), aligning strategies with growth objectives and optimising pricing structures to increase competitiveness.

I am committed to continuous improvement, I provide insights and actionable recommendations to senior management, facilitating data-driven decision-making and driving ongoing business success.
