About Jama Ayalew
As the Director of Strategic Partnerships at POLITICO, I lead the development and execution of innovative and impactful partnerships with various stakeholders in the media, policy, and business sectors. I leverage my degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from Virginia Commonwealth University, with a focus on mass communications and business administration and a minor in political science, to understand the complex and dynamic issues and trends that affect our partners and audiences.I have a strong background and track record in outbound sales and new business development, having generated over $1M in annual revenue at Yelp, where I managed a portfolio of over 400 clients across diverse industries. Prior to that, I performed financial and operational audits for parking facilities at LAZ Parking, gaining valuable experience in audit and compliance. I am proficient in Salesforce Lightning and hold multiple certifications in sales and marketing. I am passionate about delivering value to my partners, learning new skills, and collaborating with my team.
