Key responsibilities include:

* Managing the full 360 sales cycle from prospecting through to close

* Running structured discovery calls to uncover customer needs and pain points

* Delivering tailored SaaS demonstrations aligned to business challenges

You will ideally have:

* Proven experience managing full 360 sales cycles

* Strong ability to assimilate complex information quickly and communicate it clearly

* Confidence delivering SaaS product demonstrations and solution presentations

* A clear understanding and application of sales methodologies (e.g. MEDDICC, SPIN, Challenger, or similar)

* Demonstrable experience building and managing a structured sales pipeline and funnel

* Strong articulation, commercial awareness and attention to detail

* A proactive, self-driven and highly curious mindset with strong personal discipline
