• Identify customer needs quickly—especially during OR consultations—and organize solutions effectively in a high-pressure environment.

• Participate in sales meetings, training, and occasional after-hours professional events as required.

• Consistently follow company policies and all applicable laws and industry standards, maintaining confidentiality and ethical conduct.
