- Build relationships with existing and new corporate prospects, leading on relevant meetings and negotiations, and engaging them with MHI’s work.
- Develop compelling content for proposals and pitches, ensuring information is well presented, accurate, and effectively adapted for different audiences.
- Proactively network and influence external partners, stakeholders, and decision makers at sector events by acting as an ambassador for MHI, representing the organisation at high levels internally and externally
