Chief Commercial Officer for Equiply
Pubblicato il 30-08-2026 - Maritime ventures in Genova
For an industrial or maritime SME, a machine is one of the largest commitments it will make — and it is usually decided without a dedicated procurement function, on offers that were never built to be compared. The supplier who is closest usually wins.

You close personally, and you own the long-cycle institutional relationships that take twenty conversations to land. We sell through partnerships, associations and the supply chains of our backers rather than cold volume — but the number is yours, whichever route gets there.

- Close the first accounts personally, before there is a team to delegate to.
- Own the institutional and large-account relationships through long, multi-stakeholder cycles.
- Build the supplier side and the commission structure, keeping the criteria transparent and the recommendations neutral.
- Set pricing and packaging with pro
