Summary

As a Key Account Manager and Uniform/Apparel Specialist at Tactical Solutions, I have a proven track record of building strong client and supplier relationships. I deliver customised uniform solutions, integrating customer branding while maintaining strong profit margins. I manage projects from end-to-end, working closely with clients, from initial concept to sourcing products to final delivery, ensuring the project is delivered within agreed time frames. I have presented to several prospective clients including government agencies and successfully secured new accounts. Within my accounts, I have expanded product ranges building sales growth. I have extensive experience in measuring and fitting body armour and uniforms, and proudly contributed to the New Zealand Police Measure and Fit standard for body armour.

I maintain a top-tier sales ranking, leveraging my expertise in account management, communication, and apparel knowledge. I am proficient in NetSuite, from generating quotes and processing orders to setting up customers, suppliers, and monitoring sales targets.
