• Experience of generating new business through outreach, networking and delivering presentations is also important.
• You will be confident building relationships with a range of stakeholders, including colleges, training providers and employers, and comfortable engaging face to face.
• Strong communication skills are essential, along with the ability to present information clearly and persuasively.
• You will be well organised and able to manage multiple priorities, with a good eye for detail when it comes to CRM usage and reporting.
• A practical, solutions‑focused approach and the ability to respond to challenges as they arise will help you succeed in the role.
