• Proven success managing six-figure deal cycles with strong conversion rates.
• Consultative, relationship-first sales approach with excellent communication and negotiation skills.
• Strong commercial acumen and ability to link technical solutions to tangible business outcomes.
• Experience managing pipeline and forecasting using CRM systems (e.g. HubSpot).
• Proactive, analytical, and adaptable, comfortable working across multiple industries.

Why Join Us
