You'll get involved in spotting opportunities, starting relationships, shaping partnerships, and making sure great ideas turn into booked productions.

What you'll be doing:

1. Client & Partnership Acquisition

• Identify, target, and secure new business opportunities with brands, corporate clients, and celebrities/artists
• Build and manage a strong pipeline of direct (non-agency) clients
• Establish long-term partnerships that drive repeat business and retention

1. Sales, Pitching & Deal Closure

What we're looking for:

• 5+ years in business development, partnerships, sales, talent management, or client-facing roles
• Experience in production, media, advertising, entertainment, or creative industries is a big plus
• Proven track record of actually winning new business (not just managing accounts)
• A strong network across brands, agencies, marketing teams, or talent circles
• Comfortable in fast-moving, creative environments where no two days feel the same
• Good at reading people, building trust, and making things happen
• Confident pitching ideas and closing deals without losing the creative spark
