• Maintain accurate pipeline forecasting and disciplined opportunity management in CRM (e.g., Salesforce)
• Drive consistency in deal qualification, margin discipline, and risk assessment
• Meet or exceed assigned gross margin targets.
• Model and operationalize Telamon’s core values of Choose Excellence, Own It, Always Adapt, and Win Together, by setting clear behavioral expectations, reinforcing high standards, and constructively addressing behaviors that do not align with those values
