• Submit all deliverables accurately and on time.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with key clients, partners, and stakeholders.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams across marketing, engineering, and project management to align on sales goals and client requirements.
• Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and evolving customer needs, adapting sales strategies accordingly.
• Represent GLO Marine at industry events, conferences, and trade shows.

Background & Experience

• Bachelor's Degree in Business, Engineering, or a related field.
• 10+ years of experience in sales, business development, or a related role within the maritime or offshore energy sectors — industry experience is mandatory.

• Strong understanding of technical sales and the maritime industry, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for clients.
