You’ll also be confident using CRM systems and other sales or business tools to manage opportunities and keep track of your pipeline. Previous sales experience would be beneficial but isn’t essential, as training and support will be provided.
What you’ll do
You’ll be responsible for developing relationships with partners, identifying new business opportunities and supporting opportunities throughout the sales process.
You’ll identify and approach potential partners, generate new pipeline and help develop new commercial opportunities. Building strong relationships will be a key part of the role, alongside supporting new partners and helping progress opportunities through to completion.
