• Identify customer purchasing needs, supply chain pain points and cooperation opportunities.
• Move customers from initial communication to RFQ, quotation, sample discussion, meetings or further commercial engagement.
• Work with sales, sourcing, procurement and quality teams to evaluate customer opportunities and support execution.
• Track new customer development progress and continuously improve regional development strategies.
• Convert new customer opportunities into trackable sales pipelines and real business outcomes.

What We Are Looking For

• 3+ years of experience in B2B sales, business development, customer development or market development.
• Experience in electronics, semiconductors, industrial products, manufacturing, supply chain or distribution is preferred.
• Experience developing OEM, EMS, manufacturing or technology customers is preferred.
• Strong ability in cold outreach, market judgment, and opportunity identification.
• Ability to independently conduct remote customer development and regional market expansion.
• Strong business communication, negotiation and presentation skills.
• Goal-oriented mindset with the ability to turn customer opportunities into business results.
• Good English or local language communication skills.

• Competitive base salary with performance-based incentives.
• The opportunity to independently develop a regional market.
• Exposure to global manufacturing, EMS, OEM, industrial and technology customers.
• The ability to turn your customer development capability into regional market results.
• Experience working with global sourcing, quality, logistics and sales teams.
• Deeper industry understanding of electronic components and supply chain solutions.
• Career path toward Regional Business Development Manager, Sales Manager or regional business leadership roles.
