Hence, sales efforts will be directed mainly at this segment.
• The DoS will coordinate pre-sales activities like presentations, arranging on-line demonstrations, identifying gaps between the software & customer needs, proposal preparation & presentation, commercial negotiation, contracting and post-sale customer relations.
• The DoS will represent the company at trade events and will propose & execute promotion strategies.

The Ideal Candidate:

• Will have ERP software sales experience, preferably, to hospitality or similar businesses.
• May also consider other candidates, who have track record of having successfully sold software solutions that entail consultative selling.
• Those who have worked in accounting and/or materials and/or costing function of hotels or F&B chains and who have skills need to sell.
