Sales & Business Development Representative

Description
After the successful release and commercialization of a first version of its indoor drone (Loki 1.0), the company has now released the second, much more advanced, version (Loki Mk2). Our clients range from Police Anti-Terrorist Teams to International Security companies, rescue teams and Army Special Forces.

Sky-Hero manages the complete development of its products, from conceptual R&D to setting up production and handling after sales. We are now actively looking for new collaborators to reinforce Sky-Hero’s commercial activities. In that context, the focus would mainly be on representing Sky-Hero and its products during physical meets. Together with management your goal will be to detect and visit new/existing distributors, deal and resolve distributors queries, negotiate the closing of profitable agreement as well as make presentations and attend local and international events in line with the company policy and business plans. As a front liner, you will also lead the drive towards feeding our R&D department with valuable end user feedback.

Being part of Sky-Hero will enable you to evolve in a flexible and young environment, work on high-tech products with a complete control on the entire development & production process (very few building bricks of our products are outsourced) and in close collaboration with all stakeholders of the operational and product design teams.
