I assist a large team of sales representatives in selling Oracle Cloud Infrastructure on the commercial side of the industry. This involves accompanying them to customer meetings, help prepare customer content, organise trainings for the team members, profiling and building a strong lead basis to ensure the smooth running of the business.
I was tasked with creating various systems that benefit different teams. My day-to-day tasks revolve around picking up stories (tasks) from the team board and executing them promptly. These tasks vary depending on the teams' goals for the quarter. When a task would be complete I proceed to create a Merge Request which gets reviewed by the team. While I have spare time it's also reasonable to go through other team members Merge Requests to assess them to the best of my ability. Participating in planning sessions is also part of my monthly task where we hash out the requests from the Product Developement team to deliver them exactly what they want.
My responsibilities include managing HCM and Northern European internal newsletter which was sent out to 200+ employees. - Updating and managing the go to market plan for the UK HCM Sales development while co-coordinating with different lines of businesses. - Highlight of the year was when I started to learn more about reporting and using data to design and plan with the help of the team. - Was involved in many exciting projects including social media content and creating storyboards for promotional videos. - Took the opportunity to lead Macmillan Coffee Mornings as a part of Oracle volunteering

I do work with analysis, territory modelling, pipeline data quality and help orchestrate the development initiatives. Generally speaking, this is working with spreadsheets/ PowerPoint/ presenting and analytics. I have assisted with account research (for example selecting new accounts to come on board). In addition, I have helped with account prospecting. Account prospecting refers to the considerations that go in when determining if there is scope to sell into an account. This aspect requires a lot of research and presenting back to the team.
On a day-to-day basis I prepare and post internal communications, respond to email enquiries to advise employees on internal policies, and liaise between different teams to ensure the correct advise is given.
