David Jones

Experienced in managing and maintaining key accounts across a variety of industries and business sectors, with ability to persuade clients to accept recommendations based on a solution based mindset in line with the companies KPI's while meeting the customers needs.

Identifying, strategically analysing and resolving operational risk effectively and efficiently; assessing information, applying my knowledge and experience; reviewing and making informed judgments, analysing and questioning information before determining action while working with key stakeholders internally and externally to develop workable solutions.

Although I have strong personal drive that enables me to work independently I thrive in a team environment and am a big believer in driving a strong team culture. This reflects in the relationships that i have both internally and externally with the understanding that we are all one team which helps build trust in my customers that we are genuinely there to add value to their business.
