Create lead‑generation plans to ensure a substantive opportunity pipeline.
Identify, qualify and win new customers to grow the WBG pipeline.
Present new products, packages and services to new and existing clients; convert design-wins into revenue.
Work with pre‑sales and technical teams to align capability with customer roadmaps.
Develop sales proposals, quotes and bid / RFP documents; plan the approach for each opportunity.
Negotiate specific terms of product/service offerings; analyse motivations and concerns of decision-makers.
Coordinate with stakeholders to finalise contract terms, commercial requirements and NDAs.
Engage clients regularly to uncover current and potential needs; build and strengthen relationships.
