About the job 

As Commercial Manager you will be part of a team of other Commercial Managers. You are the linking pin between our client and our SDC team(s). You will work closely with our (potential) clients and with our software architects to put the best solutions and offer forward to our clients.

You will focus on:

• Account management, by building and maintaining long-term management relationships with our clients. You will be the first point of contact and strategic partner to our clients.
• Acquisition of new SDC projects with our existing clients. The SDC is very successful in servicing its market and we would therefore like to maintain and further expand this quality level. The acquisition should therefore go together with the services and quality level provided to our clients.
• Contracting new clients based on already created leads: the SDC does not have the ambition to service as many clients as possible, but to service “industry leading parties” with projects that match with the specialities and qualities of the SDC team. It is your role to contract the right projects and clients. Develop software development offers tailored to the client, the project requirements, and the suggested software solution in collaboration with software architects.
