My Client, a growing IT Software and Services organisation which hasn't been overly affected by Covid is looking to expand their sales team with an IT Internal Account Manager.

This company does a lot of pro-active marketing that generates interest but contact with the prospect is not always possible in the current team setup as it is frequently more senior sales people who are asked to follow up.
