  • Competitor mapping and understanding the unique positioning and selling points of Port Technology
  • Identifying and researching new growth areas

  • A minimum of 2-4 years’ experience gained in a business to business sales environment (maritime, transport or technology background highly desirable)
  • Previous experience selling digital packages
  • Entrepreneurial can-do attitude and ability to thrive working in a target orientated environment
  • Competency to research and source own leads and build profitable business relationships
  • Excellent telephone etiquette and skill to lead detailed conversations with senior officials
  • Proven ability to work well in a team but also initiative to work on your own
