• Confident communicator, able to engage and influence senior stakeholders including partners, directors, and C-suite executives.
• Commercially astute with strong numeracy and the ability to construct clear business cases and ROI/sponsorship value narratives.

• Deliver structured, commercially focused sales meetings and platform demonstrations (remote and in-person)
• Clearly articulate value propositions and ROI to multi-stakeholder buying groups, including C-suite and investment committees
• Collaborate with marketing to develop campaigns, events, and content that generate qualified opportunities
• Maintain accurate pipeline management, forecasting, and activity tracking within the CRM
