The Role :

This role involves identifying the needs of current and potential customers for legacy Evoqua ISS products (now known as WSS Expansion) and offering tailored solutions.

• Support the collection of strategic market information by tracking competitors' products and customer feedback, and act accordingly.
• Meet—and ideally exceed—sales targets by achieving personal and regional sales objectives.
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date records in the CRM system as per company policy, including opportunities, contracts, email correspondence, customer relations, tenders, and quotations.
