Business Development Executive
Job Description
Inara Digital is a strategy-first creative agency working with brands across D2C, hospitality, lifestyle, wellness, and emerging businesses. We help brands grow through content, websites, social media, branding and performance marketing.
\n\nWe're looking for a Senior Business Development Executive who knows the agency business inside out and has experience bringing in new clients for creative or advertising agencies.
The Role \nThis role is focused on one thing: bringing in business.
\nYou'll be responsible for building our sales pipeline from the ground up. That means finding opportunities, reaching out to prospects, building relationships, pitching our services, negotiating commercials, and closing deals.
\nThis isn't a role where leads are handed to you. We're looking for someone who is proactive, resourceful, and knows how to generate business consistently.
What You'll Do \n- \n
- Build and manage Inara Digital's sales pipeline from scratch. \n
- Identify and approach potential clients through your existing network, outbound outreach, referrals, events, and partnerships. \n
- Set up and lead discovery meetings with founders, business owners, and marketing teams. \n
- Understand client requirements and recommend the right solutions across branding, social media, websites, content, and performance marketing. \n
- Prepare proposals and commercial discussions with support from the founders when required. \n
- Follow up consistently and move opportunities through the sales process. \n
- Close new retainers and project-based work. \n
- Maintain a healthy pipeline and keep sales reports and CRM updated. \n
- Work closely with the founders to achieve monthly and quarterly revenue goals. \n
- \n
- Minimum 3 years of business development experience in an advertising, branding, digital marketing, or creative agency. \n
- A proven track record of bringing in new business for an agency. \n
- Strong existing network of founders, business owners, marketing managers, and brand decision-makers. \n
- Confident pitching agency services and handling commercial conversations. \n
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills. \n
- Self-motivated, target-driven, and comfortable working independently. \n
We're not looking for someone who waits for leads to come in.
\nWe're looking for someone who enjoys opening doors, starting conversations, building relationships, and creating opportunities where none exist. Someone who understands how agencies work, knows the value of long-term retainers, and can contribute directly to the growth of the business.
How to Apply \nApplications without relevant agency business development experience will not be considered.
\nPlease ensure all information submitted is accurate, as we conduct background verification.
