• Support and help mentor a team of sales consultants, building leadership skills
• Be involved in deal approvals, stock management, and pricing strategy
• Work directly with the Sales Manager on forecasting and reporting
• Help build customer satisfaction and repeat business across the Hoppers Crossing region
