• Drive revenue retention and growth by overcoming objections, identifying upsell opportunities, and generating leads for Inside Sales and RSMs.
• Follow up on retention cases to secure all possible training revenue and achieve territory targets.
• Build strong, ongoing customer relationships through regular communication, post‑training follow‑ups, and proactive engagement.
• Promote CAE training solutions, highlight upsell opportunities, and inform customers about upcoming availability.
• Create optimal outcomes for both customers and CAE by pairing clients when possible and responding quickly and accurately to all inquiries.
• Educate customers on cancellation and temporary reservation policies, guiding them toward the best solutions for CAE and their needs.
• Act as a single point of contact with Embraer, building strong collaboration and supporting training coordination.
