Scope of the Position

Personally own the sales cycle, from prospecting and pipeline development through discovery, proposals, negotiation, close and account growth. Speak directly with customers to understand cargo security, logistics and supply-chain visibility pain points, then sell solutions that address their needs. Lead customer engagement and early implementations, retain and expand accounts, and ensure commercial commitments translate into reliable service.

Equip network partners to identify opportunities and coordinate proposals, pricing and delivery commitments.

Financial and Business Management

Own the full APAC P&L, including revenue, costs, margins and profitability. Prepare budgets and forecasts, review monthly financial performance and take corrective action.

Align responsibilities and handoffs with global colleagues, customers and suppliers, and remain accountable for APAC execution and customer outcomes.
