Plan and execute exhibitions, seminars, technical workshops, supplier activities and other customer engagement initiatives together with Sales and Product Management.

Partner closely with Product Management to ensure all customer-facing materials accurately reflect current technical specifications, applications, product positioning and supplier information.

Direct and develop the Marketing & Content Executive and Marketing Intern.

Establish a consistent content calendar and marketing workflow that supports priority products, industries, territories and commercial campaigns.

Track and report on marketing effectiveness, including qualified leads generated, lead-to-opportunity conversion, website and inbound performance, campaign engagement and effectiveness of technical content.

Inside / Technical Sales & Customer Service

Lead and develop the Inside/Technical Sales team responsible for inbound technical enquiries, quotations, RFQ responses and commercial customer support.

Ensure quotations and customer responses are fast, accurate, commercially appropriate and technically sound.

Establish systematic follow-up of quotations, inbound leads, repeat-order opportunities and other commercial enquiries.

Ensure opportunities are either progressed directly by Inside Sales or handed over promptly to the relevant Regional Sales team based on agreed account and opportunity ownership rules.

Define clear workflows with Regional Sales Heads for lead qualification, opportunity handover, quotation ownership, follow-up and escalation.

Set and monitor service standards and KPIs for quotation turnaround time, RFQ accuracy, quotation follow-up and quote-to-order conversion.

Oversee customer service coordination within the team, including order status updates, documentation requests, routine customer queries and commercial support.

Work closely with the Regional Sales Heads for Singapore/Malaysia/Batam and Philippines/Thailand so that Inside Sales improves field-sales productivity, customer responsiveness and overall deal velocity.

Develop the Inside Sales function beyond administrative quotation support towards proactive lead conversion, repeat-order management and structured customer follow-up.

Team, Knowledge & Digital Enablement

Lead, coach and develop team members across Technical Marketing, Inside Sales and Customer Service.

Build and maintain a shared product and application knowledge base, in partnership with Product Management, covering product specifications, application notes, quotation guidance, FAQs, case studies and other relevant commercial knowledge.

Ensure the shared knowledge base can be used consistently by Marketing, Inside Sales and the broader Commercial organisation.

Drive adoption of CRM, AI and other digital tools to improve content production, enquiry handling, quotation preparation, customer follow-up and overall responsiveness.

Establish consistent processes, templates, workflows and service standards across the function.

Identify opportunities to automate repetitive marketing, enquiry-handling and quotation activities while maintaining appropriate technical and commercial controls.

Recruit, coach and performance-manage team members as the function grows.
