Jimmy Khoo
Joseph was one of my earliest new hire when I was setting up the MangoSTEEMS SEA team in iGroup. I specifically hired Joseph for his deep experience in the education sector and knew he would be a critical member of my team, playing a key role in my growth strategy. Joseph did not disappoint me and proven he was a strong hire despite not possessing any prior commercial business and marketing experience. Some of his notable achievements included 1. presenting in front of hundreds of educators at an education conference in Jakarta in Bahasa thereby supporting our market penetration initiatives. 2. conducting numerous educators workshops advocating our STEM solutions to hundreds of educators in Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Cambodia resulting in many sales leads. 3. executing product marketing and customer engagement strategies to build sales opportunities. Helping to close a few key deals along the way. What made Joseph truly stand out as an outstanding contributor to my team was his passion for the education sector and his strong desire to deliver a positive customer experience. He was also a fast learner and able to pick up new skills like product management and marketing in a short span of time. I would strongly recommend Joseph without any hesitation to any organization looking for a high performing individual to value add to their team.
