Establish a regular cadence with the Account Executive team — weekly 1:1s with new AEs and a monthly review cadence with tenured AEs — using the numbers to keep pipeline, forecast accuracy, account performance, and margin discipline on track
Be the trusted partner who can have the hard conversations — “your numbers are down,” “this account is at risk,” “we need to push on collections” — without owning the AE reporting line
Identify coaching opportunities and partner with sales leadership on AE development
Once fully ramped on the fragrance industry and BAC’s portfolio, begin a gradual introduction to key accounts in partnership with the responsible AE, serving as the “numbers voice” with customers on accounts that need a disciplined intervention — aging AR and collections, declining volume, pricing renegotiation, off-track commitments
Own pipeline health reporting — stage conversion, velocity, aging, and win / loss analysis across all B2B categories
Build and maintain dashboards and recurring KPI reporting for the COO and executive leadership
Surface account whitespace, cross-sell opportunities, and at-risk revenue before they show up in the numbers
Conduct recurring margin reviews across products, customers, and categories, analyzing both gross margin and fully loaded cost margin — incorporating direct labor, component / raw material cost, and other direct costs
Proactively flag low-margin and margin-eroding items — products, accounts, and orders falling below target thresholds — and escalate to the AE, sales leadership, and the COO with clear, actionable recommendations
Track margin trends over time to identify pricing, cost, or product-mix issues before they erode profitability
Partner with Finance and Operations to validate cost inputs and ensure margin reporting reflects true loaded costs, not just list-level gross margin
Lead, coach, and develop the Sales Development Support (SDS) team
Oversee line item management, project brief workflow, and sample / quote coordination
Manage the sales travel and expense budget; enforce policy and surface variances
Build the operational backbone that lets AEs focus on selling and the Creative Center focus on creating
Partner directly with Kristy Robinson, Senior Director of the Creative Center, to prioritize creative and technical bandwidth against the highest-value growth accounts
Surface growth accounts using data — pipeline trajectory, margin profile, strategic fit — and translate that into clear priorities for sales and the Creative Center
