I have extensive expertise in managing national accounts, developing new business opportunities, and leading sales operations for various product categories, including office products, cleaning and break room supplies, and foodservice products. As the Director of Strategic Groups at Essendant, I am responsible for overseeing the business operations and strategy for a large national customer in the office products and cleaning and break room category, as well as managing the P&L, training, merchandising, and marketing functions for the account. I am motivated by the mission of Essendant to be the fastest and most convenient solution for workplace essentials, and I strive to create long-term partnerships with my customers based on trust, quality, and innovation. I also value diversity and inclusion, and I seek to leverage my diverse background and experiences to bring fresh perspectives and insights to my team and organization. In my current role, I have successfully managed the day-to-day business operations with the national customer, ensuring that their needs and expectations are met and exceeded. I have also implemented effective sales and marketing strategies to increase the customer retention rate, grow revenue and profitability, and expand the product portfolio and market share for Essendant. Some of my key achievements include securing a large contract with the customer, launching a new online platform to enhance the customer experience, and introducing new products and services to meet the changing demands of the workplace. To achieve these results, I have leveraged my skills in key account management, new business development, sales operations, and marketing, as well as my knowledge of industry trends, competitors, and customer segments. I have also worked closely with various internal and external stakeholders, including the senior leadership, the sales team, the product managers, the suppliers, and the customer representatives, to ensure alignment, collaboration, and communication. I am always eager to learn new skills, explore new challenges, and contribute to the success of Essendant and its customers.
