Position: Account Manager, Business Development Manager
Category: Support
Experience: 2 years | English: fluent

First of all I defended PhD in international economics and still think that after that experience I am not afraid of anything))) 
When I was a Head of the International office I found a European project, initiated it signing with foreign partners and our application won (total budget was 500.000 EUR). 
5 times I was chosen to represent Institute on International events and meetings (the Chez Republic, Poland, Germany, Cyprus, Spain) where found partners for us with who eventually we launched joint projects. 
I managed to organize foreign trips to Bremen (Germany), Valencia (Spain), China of our delegation almost for free (contacting embassies, finding sponsors and with the help of good relations with the inviting Parties).
I was in the team that relaunched Business School in our Institute. A project that started with a small budget and a big motivation and  for 4 years it successfully exists. I initiated a contract with a Swiss Business School thus our clients after the course received dual diploma.
I received few "problem clients" from the previous PM that did't want to continue work with us because the results didn't meet their expectations. However, I cut the edges and we found a common ground and the projects were finished.
With several our clients during our work I made up sales (with the website development for one client we made an app, for the other we had to prepare only UX/UI design of the website but he ordered it's development as well).  
Also I took several courses on Coursera (“Agile и Scrum в работе над проектами и продуктами”, Fundamentals of Project Planning and Management, Successful Negotiation: Essential Strategies and Skills).
Hi, my name is Nataliia. I have an unusual career path, because IT wasn't my starting point however, it became my destination) 
For 4 years I was responsible for the International cooperation and international relations of the Institute. This position could be regarded to as a Business development manager in IT, because my eventual target was to search for new partners who we could initiate projects with and maintain amicable effective relations with the existing ones. 90% of all my communication was in English. Geography of partners varied from close Europe (Poland, Germany, Spain, Cyprus etc. ) to Asian countries (Chine, Japan, Singapore). Coordination and supervisor of the department; drafting documents/agreements/contracts in English and Ukrainian;	maintaining omnichannel communication with foreign partners, participation in International events abroad - where just few of my main responsibilities. 
Currently I am a PM and responsible for identifying project goals, tasks, deliverables and overall project planning; monitoring and controlling of project execution; change requests and managing priorities; management of the dev. team; supporting continuous communication with clients etc. My projects were focused on website development and UX/UI designing for websites.
This PM experience indeed helped to acknowledge better the process and milestones of web. development and necessity to accurately set tasks to your dev.team and forecast their possible questions. Identifying your client's desires and needs and ability to build really effective communication that ultimately will bring mutual benefits is inspiring, since the main goal here is to make every participant happy)
I am looking for a company with strong corporate culture and people oriented attitude, where you have all the possibilities to grow as an expert and be inspired by your colleagues, to work among people who's eyes light up and inspire you even more.
