The Opportunity

We are looking for a dynamic and connected Business Development Manager to lead our growth in the premium and corporate segments. This is a key role for someone who understands the consultative nature of selling career services.

You won't just be selling a document; you'll be selling a professional transformation. We need a proven sales expert who can build genuine trust with senior professionals, C-suite executives, and corporate partners. Your primary mission will be to expand our B2B partnerships and grow our high-value B2C client base.

• Full-Cycle Sales:
  Own the entire business development lifecycle from prospecting and lead generation to negotiation, contract closure, and onboarding of new partners.

• Partnership Development:
  Develop and nurture a robust pipeline of new business opportunities and strategic alliances.

  Manage relationships with key accounts, including global clients, ensuring high levels of satisfaction, retention, and identifying opportunities for up-sell/cross-sell.

  Collaborate with marketing and product teams to provide market feedback and contribute to the development of new service offerings and sales strategies.
• Networking & Representation:
  Represent the company at industry events, conferences, and networking functions to build brand awareness and generate leads.
• Reporting:
  Maintain meticulous records in our CRM and provide accurate sales forecasts and pipeline reports to leadership.
