    • Identify new leads and assist BD team members in assigning targets for development.

    • Assist the BD team in developing the pipeline of new business coming into the company. This requires a thorough knowledge of the company's service offering and the marketplace (for which there would be training).

    • As required, represent the company at trade shows, conferences, and similar events to create business opportunities.

    • Regular travel, domestically and overseas (as necessary), to visit clients, suppliers, and business partners.

    • Work closely with senior management to collaborate with suppliers and business partners to ensure successful outcomes – ensuring the company's supply chain is robust and strategically capable of handling all client requirements efficiently and cost effectively.

    • Liaise with Clarksons PLC business units to identify opportunities to sell CPS services to group contacts.

    • Work closely with operations staff to ensure the highest levels of service are delivered, in line with both client and company expectations.

    • From time-to-time, work within operations to ensure the successful conversion of lead/target/client requirements to a satisfactory conclusion, while always delivering the highest levels of service.

    • Ad hoc / additional duties as required to meet the needs of the business.

    What we're looking for

    • Professional integrity and a respect for company values.

    Other requirements

    • Solid, proven BD background within shipping sector, preferably B2B sales experience.

    • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, able to effectively liaise with people at all levels and build strong relationships.

    • Client oriented, and able to tailor approach.
