The role will operate at a senior level with prospective clients, engaging business owners, senior stakeholders and IT decision-makers to understand their business challenges, priorities, budgets and long-term goals.

- Proposals and presentations: Lead proposals, pricing and customer presentations, working with internal technical and sales teams where required
- Negotiation and closing: Manage objections, commercial discussions and negotiations through to a successful close
- Target delivery: Take ownership of personal sales targets, including new business revenue, gross profit and recurring revenue
