Effectively plan and manage time and resources to optimize territory coverage and customer service.
Foster and maintain strong relationships with key accounts and prospects.
Commit to continuous learning and development in areas such as product knowledge, market trends, and advanced sales techniques.

Basic Qualifications:

Graduate in Engineering or any discipline, preferably with a management qualification.
Minimum of 4 years of relevant sales experience, with a focus on industrial or B2B sales.

Strong aptitude for value-based selling and solution-oriented sales approaches.
High proficiency in building relationships and professional networks.
Strong organizational and process-oriented mindset.
Ability to perform effectively under pressure and manage multiple priorities.
