- Drive a structured “zipper” engagement model to connect Fugro and client counterparts at multiple organisational levels, strengthening communication, client intimacy, and early visibility of opportunities.
- Develop clear, actionable account plans aligned with corporate strategy and regional business objectives, prioritising clients and opportunities based on strategic relevance.
- Facilitate intelligence sharing across the organisation, acting as the focal point for all account‑related communication and ensuring coordinated execution of market‑segment strategies.
- Collaborate with the Offshore Wind Strategy Manager and regional commercial leadership to translate strategic priorities into targeted client engagement and business development activity.
- Gather and share client feedback, support issue resolution, and contribute to proposal strategies, framework development, and contractual reviews.
- Maintain CRM accuracy by ensuring key contacts, opportunities, and project information are consistently updated in collaboration with business development and commercial teams.
- Represent Fugro at industry events to strengthen sector presence, build relationships, and stay informed on market developments.
- Work with solution owners to drive innovation uptake by linking client needs to new technologies, early‑stage concepts, and trial opportunities.
- Increase awarded revenue, improve win rates, expand wallet share, and strengthen market intelligence across the energy‑generation sector.
- Maintain strong relationships with project managers throughout project delivery, participating in kick‑off and lessons‑learned meetings to support continuous improvement and client satisfaction.
