Global Head of Net New
The Global Head of Net New Sales is responsible for defining and driving the strategic architecture behind IFS's net new revenue growth. This leader will establish the frameworks, programs, governance structures, and cross-regional playbooks that enable five regional sales organizations to consistently win new logos and expand IFS's market presence.
