- CRM Maintenance: Keep our client database (CRM) up to date, ensuring all contact information and deal statuses are accurate.
- Reporting: Generate weekly reports for management on event registration numbers and sales pipeline progress.
- Lead Management: Organically route incoming inquiries to the sales team and manage the general info@ email account.
Qualifications
- Organization: You have a "black belt" in multitasking and never let a deadline slip through the cracks.
- Experience: 2+ years in an administrative, office management, or coordinator role.
- Communication: Professional and polished; you will be interacting with HR leaders from some of the world’s largest pharma companies.

Why ?
