■ Career achievements: Initiated and led a successful overhaul of the Solid State Drive data storage device segment selling strategy in FY23, by creating a nationwide distribution network of authorised distributors and dealers. This helped to achieve a value market share of 2.3% and enhanced brand retention, driving 20% annual sales growth to £2.5 million and a 200bps gross margin improvement. Created exclusive trading strategies for the Indian precious metals market, for the proprietary trading desk. Leveraged commodity price forecasts derived from a self-conceived Quantitative Multivariate Price Model, which was co-created with a team of in-house quantitative analysts and traders. The trading desk outperformed the benchmark by 6%. Collaborated with a PE firm managing over US$20 billion on their investment in a mid-cap US auto dealer. Developed key industry projections by factoring demand-supply patterns, seasonality, expected credit growth, and socio-economic factors. The resulting Proprietary Valuation Models yielded robust fair value and IRR estimates, pivotal for the PE firm’s investment decision.
