The FUJIFILM Integrated Inkjet Solution (FIIS) Global Sales Director is responsible for developing and executing the worldwide sales strategy for FIIS to drive profitable revenue growth, expand market presence, and strengthen customer relationships across diverse international markets. This leadership role involves directing sales teams, cultivating strategic partnerships, and aligning sales initiatives with overall business objectives to achieve outstanding results in a competitive global environment.

The successful candidate will lead, mentor, and manage regional sales managers, sales engineers, and presales specialists across multiple geographies. They will leverage CRM and sales analytics tools to develop and manage sales budgets and forecasts, establish KPIs, track performance, and optimize sales activities. Collaboration with marketing, product development, and operations teams is essential to align market initiatives with sales targets, ensure customer needs are met, and address evolving market demands.

The role focuses on driving revenue growth by identifying new business opportunities and expanding existing accounts globally.
