Work Background
Revenue Operations Manager
Ring of GrimRevenue Operations Manager
Sep. 2025Germany, BerlinAs Revenue Operations Manager at The Grim, I drive strategic member acquisition and optimise conversion funnels for a values-driven global community. I design and implement multi-channel outbound strategies across X (Twitter), Instagram, and YouTube to engage high-potential prospects, whilst building sophisticated CRM pipelines and automation workflows that streamline the journey from initial contact to active membership. My work combines strategic revenue operations with hands-on execution, tracking performance metrics, analysing conversion data, and continuously refining our acquisition systems. By leveraging Al-driven tools and NEPQ sales methodology, I ensure meaningful engagement with prospects whilst maintaining the community's selective standards and cultural integrity. I collaborate cross-functionally with selectors, community operations, and leadership to optimise every touchpoint in the member journey, from first contact through onboarding, driving sustainable growth for one of the most selective communities in the personal development space.

Enrollment Advisor
FourthRevEnrollment Advisor
Jun. 2023 - Aug. 2025United Kingdom, LondonChallenge limiting beliefs and unlock career potential for professionals seeking transitions into high-demand fields. Rather than simply matching people to programmes, I use psychological insights and NEPQ questioning to help individuals recognise sophisticated capabilities they already possess but consistently undervalue. Key outcomes: • Facilitated 240+ successful career transitions in two years, helping professionals pivot from diverse backgrounds (teaching, real estate, retail) into data analytics and financial analysis roles • Identify and translate "invisible" transferable skills - particularly pattern recognition abilities that clients dismiss as "just intuition" but are essential for analytical roles • Combat imposter syndrome by guiding clients to articulate past problem-solving successes and apply those frameworks to new challenges • Provide honest consultancy - including redirecting prospects when programmes aren't suitable fits, building trust through integrity rather than sales pressure Core approach: Deploy targeted questioning to uncover the real barriers holding people back from career advancement. Address the psychological conditioning that convinces talented individuals they need formal permission or additional credentials to pursue roles they're already qualified for. Help clients see past intimidating job titles to understand what the actual work involves. The role isn't about enrolment - it's about helping people stop asking for permission to pursue careers that match their true capability.
