-
Presenting proposals that win buy-in from Directors and C-Suite executives.
-
Partnering with pre-sales and delivery teams to hand over closed deals seamlessly.
Requirements
-
A proven ERP/enterprise software salesperson, ideally with Epicor or comparable Tier 2 ERP experience.
-
Background in discrete manufacturing or ETO.
-
A hunter mentality - driven, competitive, and focused on results.
-

-
Strong professional network in business change or lean manufacturing (desirable).
-
Willingness to travel UK-wide to close business.
