We are looking for a dynamic Business Development Manager to become a vital part of our vibrant Sales team, working across the APAC region.

You will play a crucial role in the expansion of our customer pipeline, and the speed with which clients and prospects engage with our sales team. This work will be split across all our key business focus areas, and your specified territory and/or specialist vertical.

Your experience will allow you to take a balanced, mature approach to collaborate with customers for long term partnership based on trust and mutual benefit. You’ll be competitive but will recognise the value and function of the wider team. You’ll enjoy coaching those around you and most importantly you’ll enjoy winning.

• Extensive experience in Franchised Distribution, Independent Distribution, Supplier sales in high-reliability industries, or a combination of these fields.

• A strong understanding of testing and quality practices commonly used in the electronic components industry.
• Proven experience working remotely and successfully delivering results.
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with fluency in business English and the relevant local language(s) as required for the region.
• Strong presentation skills, with the ability to effectively convey information to various audiences.
• Comfort and familiarity with using ERP systems to profile customers and understand their business needs.
• Experience with sales methodologies such as Miller Heimann, Challenger, or Sandler is a plus.
• This role requires frequent travel (30% or more), including international trips. Travel will be managed in compliance with local labor regulations, with allowances to ensure a balanced workload.

Benefits:
