As a Business Development Manager in Arnhem you take ownership of the entire sales process. You use your commercial mindset to approach potential clients across European markets.

The service you sell is a trend intelligence database used by major companies to stay ahead in their markets.

Travel is part of the role (approximately 10-20%), with occasional international trips
