They wear many hats, including those of regional CEO, marketing director, intermediary between the parent company and subsidiary, sales manager and support team and some times a wide range of other headwear too. A key factor in a business’ success on a market, a Country Manager should prove the market has potential. This also means bringing in revenue.
