Description

I am a senior business professional with varied exposure across industries and geographies. From very operation heavy and customer centric roles to regional and global roles, I have had the privilege to experience a wide spectrum of commercial activity. This has involved setting up new businesses and transforming existing businesses for growth, profitability, and geographical coverage etc.

In my career spanning more than 25 years I have had the opportunity to work in some of the largest corporations of the world – General Electric, Whirlpool Corporation, American Power Corporation and Schneider Electric among others in roles that cover the width and depth of all business functions- sales, services, strategy, business development and mergers & acquisitions. My core strength lies in managing consumer facing front end and business supporting back-end activities across regions, industries, customer segments and functionalities.

Geographically, I am currently based in Singapore and work with countries all over the world. With the opportunity to work with over 100 countries and a past where I have worked on the ground in countries and regions setting up “soup to nuts” commercial operations multiple times , I am confident of setting up another commercial organization for global delivery

Having had the opportunity to work in multiple industries, twice in my career we converted a cost centre-based operation to a profit centre driven activity. We designed the solutions, deployed the solutions, trained feet on street and enabled a partner driven GTM for end-to-end offer portfolio management.

With the above background, I would like to submit my candidature for consideration. Thank you.

Regards,

Urooj Abbasi
