• Firstly, you prosper in B2B new business roles with significant success in generating new accounts - this is not an account management role, you will create new opportunities through self-sourced, decision-maker conversations.
• You have a resourceful and tenacious approach to building your pipeline - you have a well-developed toolkit of lead-generation approaches and thrive putting in the hard yards researching, cold calling, prospecting, door knocking, and vehicle spotting to identify the most exciting leads.
• You understand that one size does not fit all - you can develop personalised, multi-product/service offerings including preparing proposals and implementation documentation to deliver the perfect solution to your clients.
