We're hiring a Business Development Manager who will own new client acquisition, partnership development, and opportunity generation full-time.

Collaborate closely with the CEO on client calls and deal closing
Track pipeline, opportunities, and conversion metrics, and report on progress<\/p>\n
What We're Looking For
Proven experience in business development \/ sales, ideally within IT outsourcing or software development services
Experience targeting or working with the US market
Strong English you'll be reaching out to and corresponding with US-based prospects
A self-starter mindset comfortable building something from zero with high ownership and little existing infrastructure
A strong sense of ownership comfortable making decisions and moving things forward independently, without needing close oversight
Understanding of how web\/app development outsourcing services are sold
Comfort with outbound tools<\/p>\n
Nice to Have
Existing network or connections within the US startup ecosystem
Experience building a sales\/BD function or process from scratch<\/p>\n
What We Offer
Competitive salary with regular reviews
Support for individual entrepreneurs with accounting assistance
Fully remote work
A clear path for professional development and growth
