The interviewer wants to learn about your motivations. In addition, they're also interested in whether you have any desire to scale your skills and capabilities. A successful answer will clearly outline what you are missing in your current position. Avoid any mention of personal conflicts or dissatisfaction with compensation. Focus on the job description and expectations instead.

"In my current role, I enjoy a lot of independence. As long as I hit my goals, it's up to me to strategize how to optimize marketing and target the best prospects. I also like that I have access to experts within the company I can collaborate with as needed. However, I really want to be able to develop my skills in managing the entire sales pipeline. For example, I can only prospect certain types of clients who are forwarded to me through the contact management system. I think that by utilizing the right tools, and with the right research work, I can really expand our horizon in terms of business development."
