Product manager for life cycle management department for Endress+Hauser - a process automation company. Life Cycle Management (or e-business) was a primary strategy for all Endress+Hauser sales centres in all countries. We offered asset management software, documentation management software and an online shop. It was my responsibility to help roll out these tools and platforms to sales centres world wide. The aim was to train and introduce these topics to each country's sale centre so that they could then take on the responsibility themselves. I would visit a sales centre, introduce the topics and then train them on the marketing and administration side of the tools. We would then visit customers, investigate the market interest in these tools and how it applied for their country. Once trained and comfortable selling and administrating the platforms, we took on more of a support role remotely from the Basel office.Countries I managed:South AfricaU.S.ADenmark, Sweden, NorwayHollandU.KSouth KoreaChinaItaly
