  • Introduce and explain lighting offerings through individual meetings, product walk-throughs, or formal presentations as appropriate.
  • Support the sales cycle through quoting, submittals, order entry, and project coordination.
  • Support clients in outlining project specifications and identifying products that satisfy both functional demands and design intent.
  • Manage day-to-day customer communication and ensure a seamless follow-through on sales commitments.
  • Keep pace with evolving industry advancements, product innovations, and compliance standards through ongoing development and peer engagement.
Skill Set:
