About me..
I’m an entrepreneur, seasoned consultant and manager from a sales and marketing background. I left a highly successful career in sales to pursue my passion for Product having just completed my Product Management certification from the prestigious Product School, CA.
My focus starts and finishes with the customer, my career in sales enabled me to deliver to them, whilst my knowledge in marketing has enabled me to speak their language. It is this laser focus for delivering the customers needs, that I believe give me an advantage within the world of Product.
I worked in recruitment for 5 years, working across UK, EMEA and the USA, working with some of the largest companies, exciting unicorns and electrifying start ups, recruiting IT Architects, Software Engineers, Developers, CTO’s. My ability to build a rapport across all divisions within technology enable me to get the best out of IT teams.
My Skills
Not only do I build relationships and rapports with every stakeholder, but I have the ability to plan and forecast large scale projects, from working on RFI’s, RFP’s, and pitches for a £9m project with Nissan to working closely with CTO’s, and Heads of HR forecasting projects, ensuring they had the capacity to deliver with ongoing agile contract recruitment services.
I am dedicated, resilient and exceptionally eager to learn more about Product.
What I lack in formal Product Management experience, I make up for with the businesses I have set up and the work I have done internally with my previous roles.
I have a Product Management certification from the prestigious Product School, Prince2 foundation, Advanced Google Analytics, Advanced Excel. I am also beginning to learn Python.
