Mission: The main mission is to maximise Sleek revenue by making sure clients are paying the right price for the services they get from Sleek. This role will be mainly focused on working for our clients based in Hong Kong.
Outcomes:
Ownership: This shows reliability and helps build trust within the team. We move fast and need to know that everyone will see things through to completion and proactively help to get things back on track when challenges arise. Accountability is really important to us.

Structured Thinking: Our business is complex with many layers (many services, many countries, many cultures).

It ensures solutions are pragmatic and balance the needs of the organisation, team, and customers.
A great listener: Our prospects need to feel heard and understood by you. You will present in a kind, calm, warm, attentive manner - working cooperatively to help solve the needs of our potential customers and never interrupting them.
Data driven: We are a data rich business with :15,000 small customers. Each decision we make can impact many more people than we realise - so it's critical that we use sound data to support our strategies and review the success of our initiatives.
Can have tough conversations in a positive way: It's not a matter of if, but when difficult interpersonal situations arise. Disagreement, conflict and disappointment are a given in a fast moving business where people care about their work. People that proactively have tough conversations with kindness build empathy, trust and great working relationships.
