In this role, you will be in charge of:


🚀 Pipeline & Outreach Management:
    • Build and nurture sales pipelines through effective cold outreach, tailored pitch presentations, and consistent follow-ups.

    • Independently source and scrape leads, efficiently structuring them for targeted outreach.

🤝 Client Relationship & Reporting:
    • Close deals, manage renewals, and maintain exceptional client communications.
    • Provide detailed reporting and constructive internal feedback to drive continuous improvement.

Working hours are full-time on UK time, with occasional meetings scheduled for US timezones.
