- Present Pennylane and demonstrate how it would change their day-to-day operations
- Close the sale with the firm, encouraging them to manage a significant portion of their portfolio’s accounting on Pennylane
- Once the sale is closed and the first client files are managed by the accounting firm, you will support the firm over time to:
- Retain and grow the number of files managed on Pennylane. Drive growth across your portfolio of firms
- Coordinate support teams to ensure the service delivered meets the firms’ expectations
- Develop a network of promoter firms that can refer other peers
- Other actions to perform:

- Analyze your performance, learn from other team members, and share your techniques to improve the team’s performance
- Position based in La Réunion, requiring frequent travel.
