- A track record of proactive, consultative outreach — you're comfortable picking up the phone and starting conversations from scratch

- Confidence engaging senior stakeholders (FDs, CFOs, founders) and translating complex value propositions into clear, compelling conversations
- A genuine curiosity about business, innovation and technology — you'll be talking to some of the most interesting companies in the UK
