Lead or support negotiations and contract discussions
Ensure disciplined and consistent commercial execution

Participate in network selling to align account strategy, pricing, and engagement
Support global account initiatives to:
Secure multi-site design wins
Deliver consistent customer experience
Maximize account revenue

6. Strategic Account Management
