SALES DIRECTOR, NEW BUSINESS
We are seeking an enthusiastic leader with a proven track record in sales and sales management to head our sales team for our international work community. You know the different stages of the B2B sales process and resolutely advance projects yourself. You support and motivate your team in finding solutions for our customers and you happily collaborate across departmental boundaries.
The position requires good interaction and networking skills, perseverance, goal orientation, and the ability to motivate and develop your team.
