I initially received an opportunity to represent Ultimate charter as a marina coordinator, responsible for the smooth organisation of charters. Main tasks involved the liasing between employees and customers to ensure successful charters and that special requests were met. This eventually led to the adoption of a position in sales and marketing for the company where duties saw that marketing initiatives were installed to increase clientele and charters run through various marinas in the UAE.
