Published Date: • Remote
Description
We are a growing international web development agency specializing in WordPress and Shopify design and development. We work with clients worldwide and are looking for an experienced, ambitious, and results-driven Senior Business Development Specialist to help us expand our international client base.
The primary responsibility of this role is to identify qualified business opportunities, build relationships with potential clients and agency partners, generate sales conversations, and consistently build a strong pipeline of potential projects.
We are looking for someone who understands B2B business development and knows how to find the right prospects, approach them with personalized messaging, follow up professionally, qualify opportunities, and turn conversations into genuine business opportunities.
Experience with web development, WordPress, Shopify, eCommerce, SaaS, digital agencies, or related services is highly preferred.
Experience with social media management, LinkedIn growth, content planning, or using social platforms for business development will be considered a strong plus.
We care about results, not simply the number of messages or leads generated. The right candidate will have significant opportunity to grow with the company and take on greater responsibility as our sales operation expands.
Salary is negotiable and will depend on experience and proven ability. We are willing to pay significantly more for an exceptional candidate who can consistently deliver results.
A practical Business Development test will be conducted as part of the hiring process before the final hiring decision.
