9. Monitor competition.
10. Potentially represent Comgent at key networking events or IT industry meetups.

Requirements

1. Fluent in French and English, both spoken and written, with demonstrated client-facing sales fluency (additional languages are a strong asset).
2. Minimum 5 years of proven B2B sales experience, including successful business development and the ability to build and maintain long-term client relationships.

4. Solid understanding of the IT and Networking industries; experience in these sectors is highly preferred.
5. Familiarity with the particularities of French business culture is essential.
6. Excellent communication skills and a problem-solving mindset.

8. Goal-oriented, agile, tenacious, and a fast learner capable of adapting to a dynamic environment.
9. Enthusiastic about working in an international and multicultural context.
10. Possesses an existing personal network of relevant decision-makers, especially in IT or tech-related sectors.
11. Comfortable working independently while integrating into a structured yet agile team.
