• Set and track sell-out targets, conversion and demo counts, control promoter costs and attendance, and report daily.
• Inspect and record customer and retailer returns by condition and root cause, and route them to resale, refurbishment, warranty claim or write-off.
• Act as the link between Trade, Customer Care and Warehouse to close returns within SLAs, and analyse return trends by SKU and account.
• Report weekly sell-out, execution compliance, promoter productivity and returns data to the Senior Regional Expansion Manager.
