  7. You collaborate closely with the rest of the studio team to ensure what is agreed with prospects aligns with the value we provide through delivered work.

  8. You track pipeline, revenue targets, and deal progress with clarity and discipline, sharing visibility with leadership so we can plan capacity and growth effectively.
