Bio
James Wilkinson
Karen is an exceptionally focussed, tenacious and capable new business sales professional with considerable experience in the Information Management domain. She has particular experience working within the partnership model with large software vendors. I would recommend her unreservedly.
Aidan King
When seeking out a reseller partner we always look for the ability to build trust. In most cases this can take months and years but working with Karen she uses her innate ability to break down barriers and warm interpersonal skills, to quickly get people aligned and dipartite teams working together. She is a true sales leader who can open doors, cultivate relationships and crucially she is not afraid to ask for the business. I always look forward to working on opportunities with Karen as it nets results.
