* Self-motivated with a hunger to hit targets and earn commission
* Comfortable using LinkedIn, email, video, and CRM tools
* A proactive, can-do mindset – not afraid to bring new ideas to the table
* A team player who thrives in a collaborative, creative environment
Experience in exhibitions or events is a bonus, but not essential — attitude and ambition are what matter most.
