What made you pick sales as a career?

Watching the US Office. By the way, Kevin is an underrated character. 

What struck you as unique when you first joined Klearcom?

What excites you about what you do?

What excites me about my role is the opportunity to travel and meet new people. I'm particularly thrilled by the fact that the company has sent me to Manchester twice and on a business trip to Las Vegas, which was my first time visiting the US.

Could you walk us through your typical work week?

Sure! Typically, my work week involves a mix of activities focused on developing and implementing prospect strategies with the sales team. This includes meetings with the Head of Sales to strategize, engaging with Fortune 500 organizations to create new sales opportunities, monitoring team campaigns, providing feedback, and participating in peer coaching and onboarding sessions.

Additionally, I allocate time for client meetings, follow-ups, and administrative tasks to ensure smooth operations and effective communication across the team. Outside of work discussions, there's also an ongoing debate in the office about which flavor of Monster energy drink is the best! Got to be the Ultra Golden Pineapple for me.  

What kind of projects do you work on at Klearcom?

Currently, I'm focused on improving and streamlining processes to ensure a smooth onboarding experience for new starters within the Sales team.

What is an exciting challenge you’re currently facing?

An exciting challenge I'm currently facing involves a project where we're identifying charities that would benefit from free testing services, particularly those reliant on their contact centers and toll/toll-free numbers globally. It's rewarding to contribute to the broader community in meaningful ways.

It's inspiring to be part of this culture where every member strives for excellence, continuously pushing boundaries, and supporting each other to achieve our collective goals.

Does pineapple belong on pizza? (look away now Italians)

That’s a no go. Stick to the classic ingredients: tomatoes, cheese, meats. It’s like asking if Wayne Rooney should be wearing a Manchester City jersey - it’s just not right.
