• Build and maintain strong, trusted client relationships through regular engagement

• Identify new opportunities, markets and prospects to expand retrofit adoption

• Capture insights, maintain CRM accuracy, and translate data into clear, actionable plans

• Champion innovation by piloting new approaches and continuously refining strategies based on market feedback

About you

• Proven track record in complex B2B sales, ideally within marine or industrial sectors

• Strong experience managing long-cycle opportunities and senior stakeholder engagement

• Demonstrated ability to negotiate, influence and close high-value deals
