About Derek Saenz

MY CAREER STORYI have always been a relationship builder. Whether it has been in sales and account management roles, non-profit organizations, or in leadership positions this has always been my most effective attribute. Combining this with my ability to simplify communication into actionable next steps, I have generated success in a variety of roles.Here are a couple of examples where my ability to build relationships and communicate effectively have yielded outsized results:During my first two years GiddyUp I delivered 139% and 218% YoY revenue growth, and I onboarded and sustained GiddyUp’s two largest accounts of 2023/2024.Within 3 months at Viking Cruises, I had joined the $1 Million Club, which I was in another 2 times over 12 months. I learned that a diligent and methodical approach to outbounding and follow up was critical if I was going to be successful. I then moved into a leadership role at Viking where I motivated and trained my team to be the fastest improved Service Team in the company’s history - improving our CSAT by a full point from 3.8 to 4.8 over the course of 8 weeks.WHAT I SEEKI am on the hunt for a high-impact sales, business development, sales development, customer success, or account management position. I know enough to be dangerous in the fields of: IP Protection, Anti-Piracy, Ecommerce, Marketing, and Travel.ABOUT MEWhen I’m not at work, you’ll find me with my family, running around with my kids, or prepping a meal. Or maybe you\'ll catch me lifting in my garage gym.
