Tim is Seven Seas’ Business Development Manager, a department that combined the previous product & marketing and consultant management & training areas. He is dedicated to providing a richer training experience by integrating these departments more tightly and providing highly skilled consultants to deliver innovative and tailored solutions to our clients.

Tim joined Seven Seas in 2006 as a consultant before moving into the role of Product & Marketing Coordinator and subsequently into his current role as Business Development Manager. In this role, he consults closely with client HR, and individual department managers, to create training programs and materials that match the client’s strategic training needs.
