En résumé

I'm currently working in Malaysia for the "JOUBERT Group" as their "Sales Executive Asia & America". I am working very closely with the local Business Unit to expand our brand awareness and brand image worldwide. I specialize in new acquisition, creating new business opportunities and turning prospects into new clients. I am also driving all the Sales & Marketing activities and effective projects in the Asia-Pacific / North America regions, enhancing the company structure, reputation and performance.

Previously to that, I was hired by the company "REVOL" to develop the profitability of the brand in the USA with a focus on the West Coast. Prior to that, I was working in Bangkok for the "DUSIT THANI" Hotel Group as a Sales Manager. I was responsible for the Sales and Marketing activities of the “Dusit Thani” brand in Thailand/Philippines. Before that, I was working in Sydney for the multinational “IQPC Worldwide” as a Delegate Sales Manager. I also spent 2 years in South Korea working toward the opening of the luxurious hotel “CONRAD SEOUL” as part of the Management Team.

I completed my Bachelor & Master Degree in “International Business Management & Strategy” with honors within one of the top Business School in Paris. I also obtained with honors, a MBA in “International Hospitality & Tourism Management”. I spent most of my cursus studying abroad: North America, Central Europe and Asia.

I’m highly motivated, self-reliant with a positive attitude. I’m also hard working, dynamic, capable and a quick learner. I’m an effective team player and leader, with the ability to work well under pressure and multitask, whilst maintaining focus on delivering results. I’m comfortable in working in large-scale operations, as well as with multi-cultural workforce.

I aim to lead a quality operation, to drive Sales and Marketing activities and effective projects.
