I've developed a comprehensive understanding of our commercial operations and business model, while delivering tangible improvements to how we track and analyse business performance.

A key achievement has been creating a revenue and profit booking tracker that monitors changes across the business on a daily basis. Building on this, I developed a comprehensive and dynamic portal that breaks down revenue and profit by geography, personnel, and brand providing clear visibility of performance across different areas of the business. This portal also incorporates personnel target tracking, enabling managers to monitor individual and team progress against objectives.

Beyond building these tools, I've streamlined several finance operations, cutting tasks that previously took hours down to minutes. This process improvement work has freed up time and improved accuracy across the team.

My role involves regular communication with our overseas supplier network on the Premier Holidays side, managing payment-related queries and ensuring smooth financial relationships with key partners. I also interact regularly with key stakeholders and senior leadership, presenting data and insights that inform commercial decisions.

These responsibilities draw on my background in economics and data analysis, supported by practical skills in Microsoft SQL Server, Python, and machine learning modelling, as well as my Google Advanced Data Analytics certification. My CIMA business accounting studies have further strengthened my ability to interpret financial performance and connect operational metrics to strategic objectives.

Working across the business collaborating with colleagues in different departments, engaging with senior leaders, and maintaining external supplier relationships has given me a strong foundation in cross-functional working and stakeholder management

I managed a kitchen in a bakery environment, where I developed strong organisational and time management skills. Running a kitchen requires coordinating multiple tasks simultaneously, working to tight deadlines, and maintaining high standards under pressure skills that translate directly to managing competing priorities in a business development role. It also taught me the importance of teamwork, clear communication, and adapting quickly when things don't go to plan.
