• Represent Vanguard Renewables: Attend industry trade shows, networking events, and other business development opportunities to expand your network and strengthen our regional presence.
• Collaborate for Success: Partner with Logistics, Operations, Sales, and Accounting to ensure a seamless client onboarding experience and successful ongoing relationships.
• Navigate Complex Sales: Coordinate internal and external stakeholders to move proposals through the sales process and convert opportunities into lasting partnerships.
