Proven track record of performance in a business leadership role
Insurance/Financial/BPO Services sector experience essential
Strong preference for candidates from mid-size companies
Understand how to formulate and execute business plans and strategies
Deep understanding of sales and how to deliver a healthy sales pipeline and originate and implement transaction/deal opportunities to grow revenues.

Oversee the financial management of the business and make informed decisions (product pricing, resource allocation, procurement) to scale up profitably.
Good understanding of service experience and the processes required
Attend and present market leadership at conferences, meetings and industry events to build the brand and profile of the business
Desire to work with and develop young people in a high-performance environment is important
