  • Build and manage a high-quality pipeline, ensuring accurate forecasting and opportunity tracking.
  • Participate in customer meetings, discovery workshops, tenders and commercial negotiations.
  • Provide market intelligence, customer insights and competitive analysis to support growth initiatives.
  • Work closely with Product, Pricing, Finance and Commercial Strategy teams to support successful opportunity conversion.
  • Monitor contracted opportunities and ensure expected volumes convert into realised business.
  • Support customer implementations, onboarding activities and go-live readiness.
  • Maintain visibility of pipeline value, contracted volume, revenue and gross profit performance.
  • Identify opportunities to expand customer relationships and increase share of wallet.

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in business development, commercial strategy, consultative sales or customer acquisition.
  • Strong understanding of e-commerce, parcel logistics, last-mile delivery or a comparable service-based industry.
  • Demonstrated success in building pipelines and converting opportunities into sustainable revenue growth.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and customer-facing communication skills.
  • Commercially astute with a strong understanding of pricing, margin, revenue and profitability drivers.
  • Experience working across multiple countries and managing geographically dispersed stakeholders.
  • Comfortable operating in a matrix organisation and collaborating across Sales, Product, Operations and Customer Experience functions.
  • Strong analytical and forecasting capabilities, with a structured approach to pipeline management.
  • Ability to own opportunities end-to-end, from initial customer engagement through implementation and volume ramp-up.
  • Existing knowledge and network within the European parcel, e-commerce or logistics market would be highly advantageous.
  • French language skills are highly desirable
