Your responsabilities

• Hunt new business: Identify and reach out to prospects across fashion, bedding, automotive, and workwear.
• Qualify inbound leads: Manage first contacts and qualify inbound opportunities before handover.
• Secure commitments: Drive conversations until verbal conditional offtake agreement is reached; CEO signs, you prepare and push momentum.
• Expand within accounts: Open doors in new divisions or regions of onboarded brands when needed.
•Build pipeline: Keep CRM updated, track opportunities, and ensure speed of progression from intro to offtake.
• Collaborate: Work with the CEO for top-management buy-in and with Account Management for seamless handovers.
