Job Description:

Consulo are bringing an exceptional opportunity with a globally recognised engineering manufacturer at the forefront of motion and fluid control technology.

• Develop strategic account plans to maximise territory performance
• Work closely with internal technical support, engineering and customer service teams
• Conduct site visits, technical consultations and product demonstrations
• Deliver accurate forecasting, pipeline management and CRM reporting
