Position: Business Development Manager
Category: Sales
English level: fluent
Years of experience: 7

When my client, upon signing the contract, told my manager that they (my employer) should be proud of me and never let me go, even never let me get married :)
I've had my path from the promoter/sales consultant to the sales manager, with further promotion to the project manager in digital marketing, where I maintained the project development and reached settled income goals. After that, I tried myself as an account manager in a system integrator of complex technical solutions, where I was bringing more than a $60,000 margin to the company annually. Currently, I work for a product software company promoting a SaaS product to Ukrainian and foreign markets. This includes account management, business development, forming a go-to-market strategy, and participating in different marketing activities.

During this path, I've gained skills both in sales (from "cold calls" to complex multi-stage agreements, where decision-makers are leaders of large and influential enterprises in the public and commercial sectors) and in team and process management (from small startups to companies with turnover of more than $5,000,000), so I've found out how to have the "key to the heart" of both customers and colleagues.

I will happily use my skills and experience in a team of open-minded people who think alike and strive for development and growth in all senses. The desired areas are marketing, IT, and social/government, providing exciting and valuable products or services.
I'd prefer not to be engaged in cold outreach to customers as I believe that my new employer's product should solve the needs of its potential customers and have a strong marketing promotion that makes them find the company by themselves. 

From my perspective, most clients need a good friend inside the team to solve their tasks and to promote their interests internally while defending the company's interests in the market at the same time. The one who hears the customers' pains and finds there the way to improvements and the company's growth.
