Corporate Finance & Operations - Associate Managing Director — Chemco Int'l Leasing
Challenge: Enable the International Division of the fifth largest bank in the US to grow and expand its global business opportunities by establishing branch offices in foreign countries.
Actions: Traveled extensively throughout Asia Pacific to meet with senior-level executives of in-country businesses and persuade them to enter into joint venture agreements to facilitate Chemco's legal offering of lending services.
Results: Increased assets by $25 million and managed a $50+ million portfolio, in this high profile position in which I was entrusted with a mission-critical task. I independently enabled Chemco to realize its business and revenue objectives — opening branch offices in Japan, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Australia.
Analysis: This was true rainmaking and continued my success in frontline business development roles. In this situation, I gained vast knowledge and experience moving and building relationships within the global community.
