Calling existing, low-spending and lapsed accounts to follow up on quotations and secure new opportunities
Identifying new potential customers and working with the external sales team to bring them on board
Improving quotation conversion in line with the commercial sales plan
Working closely with Design Office Managers and Business Development Managers to keep the customer experience seamless
Taking ownership of customer issues and resolving complaints promptly
Carrying out sales and margin analysis, agreeing key actions with your Design Office Manager
