The position is predominantly focused on hands-on business development and account management activities, supported by an experienced UK team providing both sales and pre-sales support. Key Requirements: Proven experience selling enterprise software, IT solutions or consulting services. Demonstrable success in winning new business and generating recurring revenue.
