  • Builds trust through consistency, reliability, and strong rapport.
  • Job Requirements :

  • A bachelor's degree is preferred.
  • At least two years of relevant / consultative sales experience.
  • History of selling business services to C-level professionals in a highly competitive market is an advantage.
  • The ability and willingness to make cold calls and book meetings.
  • Previous experience in a similar role, specifically with new-business development, achieving quota goals, and managing personal sales strategies.
  • Effective presentation, organization, and time management skills.
  • A fast-learning team player who is at ease with technology.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • This role offers a unique opportunity to work with some of the most influential brands in the high-tech industry and grow as a sales professional. If you are passionate about driving client growth and building long-term relationships, we encourage you to apply.
