    Maintain accurate records of activities, appointments, and results.

    Represent the company professionally at networking events, presentations, and meetings.

    Qualifications

    5+ years of experience in business development, B2B sales, or related roles.

    Proven ability to generate leads, book appointments, and develop lasting partnerships.

    Strong communication, presentation, and negotiation skills.

    Highly organized, self-motivated, and results-driven with excellent follow-up abilities.
