As a Business Development Leader, I drive double-digit revenue growth for brands by transforming bold, creative attraction concepts into commercially successful, globally scalable experiences that delight audiences and strengthen market leadership.
With 15+ years in sports, entertainment, and technology-driven attractions, Iโve transformed ambitious ideas into commercially successful realities. My career includes launching award-nominated concepts, developing multi-million-euro pipelines, and securing strategic partnerships across EMEA and international markets.
Core strengths and results:
- Market Expansion & Growth Strategy โ Opening new markets and creating entry strategies that drive long-term revenue.
- High-Impact Sales Leadership โ Building pipelines and closing deals with major theme parks, leisure venues, tourism boards, and entertainment brands.
- Strategic Partnerships โ Forging alliances that accelerate innovation and market share.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration โ Aligning creative, technical, and operational teams to ensure concepts are visionary, viable, and profitable.
I work where creativity meets commercial strategyโbridging the gap between audience excitement and business performance. Whether itโs a flying theatre, interactive dark ride, or new attraction concept, my focus is always on maximising both guest impact and bottom-line results.
