To meet monthly and annual budget goals, and master the products and services offered by the company both locally and globally, it is essential to dominate local and global systems in terms of sales modules. This ensures the correct usage and ability to offer these systems to clients, such as IRIS and CRM. Seeking new targets and setting criteria for proper implementation for new clients is important.

Reviewing necessary documents with the company's legal area for signing by GEODIS, leading participation in bidding processes following internal company regulations, presenting action plans if individual goals are not met for more than three consecutive months, registering PQRF in the system, and performing other functions deemed pertinent by the immediate supervisor are essential responsibilities.
