• Manage the entire sales funnel from initial contact to signed agreements, ensuring seamless handovers.
• Track all interactions in Vincere CRM, focusing on continuous improvement.
• Uphold Core3's B Corp ethos, demonstrating that profit, people, and planet can coexist.

• £30,000 - £40,000 basic salary.
