You'll also need experience of:

• Monitoring customer satisfaction to collect relevant information that allows the implementation of a long-term commercial relationship strategy, and promptly acting on corrective actions when required.
• Identifying and developing business with existing and new customers.
• Managing contracts with the customer, taking care of sharing them with relevant functions and getting internal approval for changes where appropriate.
• Managing commercial issues during product development up to the product's start of production, with the support of programme management and sales management.
