Key responsibilities

As a Flex IT Account Manager you are expected to organize your working time in what we call the Daily Mandatory Structure (DMS); meaning that you will spend 25% of your time hunting and generating new leads and customers, 25% of your time will be spent developing your existing and recently acquired customer base, while the remaining 50% of your time will be spent on after sales follow-up and procedures.

The Daily Mandatory Structure (DMS) will play a fundamental role in developing yourself as a strong sales individual, but also in developing future growth and meeting the established KPI’s of the organization as a whole.

  • Hunt proactively by using known and creative channels to capture the relevant pool of customers.
  • Work tirelessly to convert your hard-earned leads into actual buying customer.
  • You are committed to acquiring knowledge and interest in the customers pool we as an organization operate and want to expand in.
  • You work within a niche industry of IT resellers, and this drives your continued curiosity in wanting to develop this niche further.

Qualifications, skills and competencies

  • You do not shy away and are strong in your negotiation skills.
  • You are commercially savvy by nature and have the ability to recognize an opportunity and pursue it.
  • You are able to maintain a healthy balance between customer, result and quality.
  • You are able to work in a structured manner and get the most out of your working day.
