• Recruit, develop, and lead the regional Go-to-Market team upon achieving key traction milestones.
• Act as the regional market intelligence lead and strategic sparring partner to the Head of Partnerships, delivering accurate forecasts and resource planning.

• Demonstrated success in converting flagship partnerships into €10M+ ARR with full budget ownership.
