• Strategic & Execution-Driven: Capable of crafting growth strategies while delivering hands-on results.
• Sales Leader: Skilled at understanding customer pain points and converting them into business opportunities.
• Innovative Mindset: Passionate about scaling products and exploring new levers for growth.
• Based in Lagos: Strong familiarity with the Lagos ecosystem and ability to activate local networks.
