Meet Sayuri Suzuki of Denyo Singapore

Introduction

Everyone, meet Sayuri Suzuki

Joining us in Denyo Singapore, across 3,257 miles from Japan, is our motivated Assistant Sales Manager, Sayuri Suzuki. Born and raised in Japan, Sayuri has always aspired to connect with people and cultures from around the world. It was in her early twenties that she decided to take a leap by leaving her stable job to pursue a local education in International Studies, where she excelled with flying colours, and scored a scholarship opportunity to pursue a second Bachelor’s degree at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside in the United States.

Two years abroad wasn’t exactly smooth sailing as she initially struggled with the language barrier. However, with unwavering determination, she eventually conquered those hurdles and witnessed an entirely new way of life. Experiencing and appreciating the people, their traditions, and their culture has been the centrepiece of her education in International Studies. She has also grown into a bilingual and confident woman who subsequently landed a position at Denyo Singapore.

When Sayuri first hears from her ex-colleague that Denyo Singapore has an opening for Assistant Sales Manager, she knows this could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With relevant sales experience in the machinery industry, this line of business isn’t a total stranger to her. Coupled with her ability to speak fluent English, she was welcomed into the Denyo team and eventually took over Japanese customers in Southeast Asia.

Time forward 14 months –

The world as we know it has become increasingly interconnected, and her field of study has been instrumental in helping her navigate the shift between nations. While some hiccups were inevitable, Sayuri has adapted to her role rather quickly with the help of her co-workers and mentor. She has proven to be a team player in her respective department and a capable individual who goes the extra mile for her customers’ needs for reliable products, services and innovative smart solutions.

As of now, she is learning to be the best version of herself – but should an opportunity arise in the future, she aims to lead a team and provide guidance to the next generation of Denyo personnel. Now you know the story of Sayuri – be sure to say hi if you haven’t, and show her some love on LinkedIn!
