Your mission is to identify, pitch, and close new direct B2B accounts within your local market. You are a high-activity hunter focused on remittance companies, professional traders, family offices, and corporate treasuries. Success in this role is measured by the volume of new institutional clients you onboard and the revenue they generate in their first 90 days. 

1. Local Market Prospecting & Hunting

• Proactively identify and engage high-potential B2B prospects in the local market, including remittance companies, professional trading firms, family offices, and corporate treasurers. 
• Execute a high-volume outreach strategy (calls, meetings, and networking) to maintain a healthy and active pipeline of prospective direct clients.
• Qualify local inbound leads to ensure your time is spent on entities with significant trading volume and immediate intent. 

2. Sales Execution & Deal Closing

• Deliver professional, technical sales presentations and proposals that clearly articulate Luno’s value proposition, liquidity depth, and institutional-grade security. 
• Lead the end-to-end sales process from first contact to signed agreement, ensuring that commercial terms are met and prospects are successfully converted into active users.
• Work closely with local onboarding and compliance teams to ensure new accounts are activated and execute their "first trade" as quickly as possible. 

3. Market Connectivity & Brand Presence

• Build and leverage a deep network within the local financial and digital asset ecosystem to generate referrals and build brand authority.
• Represent the company at local industry conferences and networking events to feed the top-of-funnel pipeline and keep a pulse on competitor activity.
• Partner with the local Country Manager to turn their high-level networking and "VIP" leads into closed-won B2B accounts.

4. Reporting & Commercial Discipline

• Maintain a rigorous, weighted pipeline (based on Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) or volume estimates) to provide the Head of Sales with high-confidence projections for upcoming months.
• Provide the Head of Sales with "on-the-ground" feedback regarding local competitor pricing, product gaps, and shifting customer sentiment to help refine the local sales and product strategy.

• New Account Activations: Number of newly onboarded and "activated" (first trade) B2B entities per month.
• Weighted Pipeline Value: Total MRR/Volume value of the pipeline based on probability stages.
• Actual vs. Forecast Variance: Ability to achieve the specific targets set in the previous month's report.
