  • Collaborate closely with Data and Research teams to ensure client feedback and market intelligence inform product development and positioning.
  • Partner with Marketing and Business Development to generate and nurture inbound and outbound leads across the EMEA market.
  • Monitor and report sales performance, pipeline health and key metrics through Salesforce, ensuring accurate forecasting and pipeline management.
  • Maintain competitive awareness by tracking market developments and competitor offerings, sharing relevant intelligence with internal stakeholders.
  • Represent Kpler’s Dry Bulk solutions at regional industry events, conferences and client meetings to strengthen market visibility and develop new relationships.

Skills and Experience

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
