• Account Management Expertise: A proven track record in an account management or similar commercial role, with experience in telephone-based support and sales.

• Data-Led Problem Solving: The ability to understand complex problems and get to the crux of an issue quickly using data, without over-complicating solutions.

• Effective Communication: An excellent phone manner with the ability to remove barriers through creative thinking and persuasive communication.

• Tech Enthusiasm: A genuine interest in technology and a keenness to learn how our platform tools can help partners excel in a digital marketplace.
