• Partner with Account Executives to identify and execute territory plans, autonomously managing multiple priorities and actively driving effective pipeline development.
• Execute a formalised business development process with consistency and creativity, adapting your approach to engage confidently with mid-level and executive contacts.
• Recommend improvements to business development strategies, processes, documents, and tools to benefit internal teams and external prospects, drawing on data insights and AI-assisted workflows where applicable.

• Strong team player with a collaborative mindset, exceptional communication skills (written, verbal, and presentation), and the ability to present to groups of all sizes.
• You take initiative and work effectively with guidance from your manager and quick to learn new concepts and technologies, with comfort using AI-assisted workflows and modern sales tools to drive productivity.
• Proficiency with contact management solutions (e.g. Salesforce.com) and Microsoft Office suite, with strong planning, organising, and multi-tasking abilities.
• Creative problem-solving abilities with an confident, persistent approach to outreach and a genuine desire to learn and improve.
• Due to client contractual obligations, the successful candidate will be asked to clear a background check upon hire.
