• Experience using CRM platforms, preferably Salesforce, alongside reporting and analytics tools. Knowledge of Tableau is an advantage.
• Understanding of API integrations and technology-driven commercial solutions is highly desirable.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and PowerPoint.
• Professional fluency in French is essential due to regular interactions with French-speaking travel agency partners. Professional English communication skills are also required; additional languages are an advantage.
• Self-motivated, results-oriented, and well-organized, with the ability to manage a territory independently while collaborating effectively with internal teams.
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation are required for frequent customer visits.
