  • Proven ability to lead accounts strategically and commercially, with a track record of growth.
  • A confident communicator and relationship builder, with excellent written and verbal skills.
  • Leadership experience managing, mentoring, and developing high-performing teams.
  • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset.
