Job description: Strategic Commercial Manager

The Strategic Commercial Manager reports to the Commercial Director of Europe as their right hand, identifying and driving initiatives to achieve commercial excellence. They will influence and contribute to deploying Caldic’s European Commercial Strategy plan. In turn, they also identify concrete steps to help professionalize Caldic’s commercial activities. One example is to ensure the ongoing, proactive use of the CRM tools to translate business needs, which are the backbone for business development.

The Strategic Commercial Manager enjoys a standalone role in the European commercial organization. They will interact with stakeholders company-wide who are involved in the relevant initiatives. This role will also reach out to different verticals, achieve progress, and inspire colleagues to implement changes. That’s why sufficient independence and ownership to identify and drive initiatives will be key to this role’s success.

They will perform robust quantitative analyses and track the initiatives’ progress in a structured format. The manager will design reporting templates and then support and challenge teams to properly adopt and use these templates.

The Strategic Commercial Manager will be valued for implementing projects with strategic significance. This role has a steep learning curve and may, in time, lead to a senior management position within Caldic.” – Michel Dewael, Commercial Director Europe of Caldic
