Regulatory Acumen : Strong understanding of GDPR and European labor council regulations regarding recording calls and employee assessments. Language Sensitivity : While English is the corporate language, you must ensure content is "International English" compliant (removing US colloquialisms) before distributing it to non-native English-speaking teams in DACH/France for example What You Bring 5-7 years of experience in sales enablement, sales operations, direct sales or related fields. Strong understanding of sales methodologies, tools, and processes. Proven experience designing and delivering training programs. Excellent communication, presentation, and project management skills.
