Bedrijfsomschrijving
The Account Manager Intelligent Inspections (M/F/X) is a distinctly commercial profile who autonomously identifies and approaches new potential clients in Belgium. The focus lies on developing and commercializing innovative intelligent inspection solutions from the Vinçotte / KIWA participations, in complementarity with Vinçotte's existing services. The role initially operates independently from the existing account structure in order to guarantee speed, focus, and traction. Existing account managers are only involved when this demonstrably creates added value or accelerates scaling. The Account Manager works with their own commercial KPIs, exclusively linked to intelligent inspection services. This ensures that no conflict of interest arises with existing inspection techniques or propositions.
