• Assess prospective partners' business and technical and operational needs and explain how Assure's app-based membership platform and integration options meet those needs.
• Promote Assure's app development roadmap and membership product suite to existing and prospective partners, positioning the platform as an integrated solution rather than a standalone product.
• Quote and negotiate commercial terms, credit arrangements, and contracts, and finalise partner agreements and onboarding schedules.
• Coordinate the delivery, app integration, point-of-sale setup, and staff training required to launch the membership program with new partners.
• Report to sales and commercial management on new business secured, pipeline status, and the market performance of Assure's app and membership offerings.
• Follow up with new and existing partners to confirm satisfaction with the app and membership program, arranging modifications and resolving issues as they arise.
• Prepare sales reports and maintain records of business development activity and associated expenses.

Requirements

• Experience using consultative or needs-based sales methodologies (e.g. MEDDICC, Miller Heiman) to manage complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles.
• Strong contract negotiation and proposal/tender preparation skills.
• Ability to explain app functionality and technical integration requirements clearly to non-technical retail and enterprise stakeholders.
• Proficiency with CRM, telephony and sales tooling (e.g. Salesforce, or equivalent).
