Valtech is looking for a Senior New Business Developer m/f/d to join us in France to support our ambition of becoming the leading digital agency globally.
To be a success in the role you will know the agency game because you have lived it for years. You will be able to articulate the value of digital transformation to a B2B or B2C client in 50 words or less and, most importantly, as a digital native you can translate the trends and lingo of the digital world into something a C-level executive can understand, value and buy.
Your job is to know the market, hunt the business challenges that can be solved digitally, creating and pursuing opportunities with new client prospects. You know the value of getting really stuck-in to digital consulting rather than going on autopilot with generic slide decks, and you’re comfortable with positioning a full-service offering that spans strategy, creative and technology.
Critically you’ll know that digital is so much more than the website. You’ll be passionate about the impact your work has on human beings.
You will be accountable to drive a lean and effective end-to-end sales process across the funnel.
You will be well networked into the wider global company, using the power of the One Valtech organization to drive the French based business.
You may be required to travel on the Company’s business and shall abide by the prevailing business travel policies or general practices.
