• Partner with Account Managers and Pre‑Sales teams to support commercial and technical discovery.
• Deliver comprehensive handovers including stakeholder mapping, business challenges, scope, and agreed next steps.
• Consistently achieve qualified Sales Opportunity (QSO) and pipeline generation targets.

Drive Operational Excellence
