Customer solution seller, helping source the right products and solutions to a range of customers to satisfy their needs. This could be a full home soundsystem and entertainment package through to individual product upgrades. I provided the technical expertise and the ability to convey this information in a way that anyone could understand, so that they could make the best choices, then followed up with sales support and delivery options, through to a final check on customer satisfaction.

Sales Consultant

I am excited to be a part of Canon New Zealand, an iconic brand globally. Managing the wider Dunedin area accounts, I was responsible for new and existing business in this region. The strong partnerships that Canon has with leading players in technology allow me to offer a wide range of collaborative, internal, as well as customer facing products that help local businesses improve processes, connect with staff, and reach out to customers in innovative ways.

Territory Account Manager

Leading on from my Mobility Advisor role at Spark Digital, I secured a job as the Lower Southern Regional Manager at UBS, a national ICT provider. This territory covered Southland, Otago and Dunedin, and involved regular regional travel to customers and the local business hubs in each region. Unfortunately, even though the southern regions were performing well, the company went into voluntary liquidation and I had to look for a new challenge.

Lower Southern Regional  Manager

Electronic and whiteware sales specialist, keeping abreast of a diverse range of technologies and products so that I could provide the best solution to a customer. This was followed up with delivery and install options and final checks to ensure customer satisfaction.

Looking after 1300 local SME businesses and their ICT needs, including growing current revenue through new business proposals and solutions. I helped businesses with everything ranging from mobiles and landlines through to websites, email addresses and IT hardware. The exciting part was providing businesses with a full set of ICT solutions to enable collaboration, communication and business functions from a digital perspective. I loved the opportunities this Maternity Leave cover role provided.

Business Account Manager

Supporting rangatahi to break into Aotearoa’s tech sector through mentoring, events, and industry connections. Helping students and grads bridge the gap between studies and employment by fostering real opportunities and hands-on experience.

Executive Council Member - Taitamariki Potentia

I helped a range of Corporations with their mobility needs across the lower South Island, from mobile fleet management through to Apps, Websites, Collaboration tools and IoT initiatives. I also identified internal and external processes that could be automated, improved, and streamlined to help businesses spend less effort on old-world paper processes and focus more on customer interaction and sales. This was from mobilising websites, changing paper based processes into digital forms, and giving them the technology to reach their customers in real-time using anything from SMS to Push Notifications, emails, and personalised apps. I also helped businesses with connectivity needs for IoT initiatives, using an innovative platform for enterprise Connected Mobility. This gives a business the means to scale, automate, and manage large deployments of remote devices, and gain valuable information using real-time dashboards and data analytics.

Mobility Advisor

Leading the PABX and WiFi department, I oversaw and scheduled techs and contractors while  finding and following business leads to generate new revenue. I proposed and presented communications solutions to local and regional businesses and helped them modernise and maximise the use of cutting  edge technologies to drive business efficiency. I project managed the transition to new systems and taught businesses how to leverage their technology for competitive advantage in today's digital society. In this regional role I was also responsible for testing new solutions and products,  designing and implementing new and existing marketing tools, as well as streamlining business processes. When I was approached about a new role at Canon where I could focus more closely on the sales aspect, I couldn't refuse. This job taught me a lot about multitasking, prioritization, and developing effective strategies to cope with a multifaceted role.

Business Development Manager

Recruitment Consultant - Software, Data & Development Specialist

In this role I was the South Island subject matter expert on Digital Display and Collaboration solutions. I have a passion for technology and its applications, and like to share that passion with customers and staff alike! My role involved looking after any scoping or implementation of digital display and video conferencing technologies across the South Island, as well as training and presenting the evolution of these exciting technologies to our sales teams and clients. This role involved regular travel across the South Island to meet clients and present solutions. It also required constant study to stay on top of a rapidly changing landscape, as well as designing, testing and implementing new products.
