James Stott

Summary
A commercially driven graduate with a BSc in Geography & Urban and Regional Planning from the University of Birmingham, currently working as a Brand Ambassador at Butternut Box, where I support the management of key accounts for the London team. I bring strong experience in customer engagement, sales, and brand representation across retail, event, and hospitality settings. From leading teams in high-pressure environments at Wimbledon to building rapport with clients and driving product performance, I thrive in roles that require clear communication, relationship-building, and a hands-on approach. Passionate about delivering value, solving problems, and working collaboratively, I’m now looking to grow within a dynamic account management team at Capgemini.
