- Maintain accurate CRM records, forecasts and opportunity information throughout the sales cycle.
- Support the commercial process by coordinating and following up on contracts, invoicing and other commercial activities, helping ensure opportunities progress smoothly and efficiently.
- Work closely with Customer Success, Marketing, Sales Operations, Business Development and Business Units to deliver a joined-up customer experience.
