Business Development Manager (New Business Hunter) – Events & Production

Events Agency or Production Agency Experience Essential

Location: North London

Salary: £50,000 Base + Uncapped, High-Yield Commission (OTE: “Write your own salary”)

Are you a fearless sales hunter who thrives on winning premium accounts? We are representing a leading UK luxury events agency with nearly 50 years of experience delivering jaw-dropping, world-class events.

While the core events business continues to thrive on referrals, its substantial multi-million-pound in-house technical production arm remains a hidden gem. They are now seeking a hungry, autonomous pioneer to break into global markets, open doors, and position this world-class technical and scenic production offering as a standalone powerhouse. If you want high energy, total freedom, and exceptional earning potential, this is it.

What’s different about this role?

• Total autonomy: No rigid corporate handbook. You’ll have the freedom to map the market, identify opportunities, and run with them your way.
• World-class arsenal: Backed by a brand with impressive heritage and an elite inventory of concert-grade sound, lighting, AV, and custom scenic fabrication.
• Uncapped earning power: A commission structure designed for high performers to significantly increase their earnings and effectively write their own salary.

What you’ll bring:

• Pure hunter DNA: A proven track record of winning new business and securing net-new logos—not account farming.
• Agency pedigree: Strong experience in live events, production, experiential build, technical AV, or luxury creative agency environments.
• Tenacity & grit: The resilience and commercial sharpness required to introduce a premium brand into a competitive new market.
• Elite communication skills: Confidence engaging with luxury hotel directors, premium brand managers, elite wedding planners, and senior corporate stakeholders.

What you’ll do:

• Drive new revenue: Target, pitch, and win high-margin technical production briefs across Dubai and the wider GCC region.
• Build a premium network: Establish strong relationships with destination venues, luxury event planners, and corporate clients.
• Pitch the extraordinary: Lead high-level creative and technical pitches in collaboration with UK-based design and engineering teams to deliver flawless execution.
• Cross-sell opportunities: Identify high-net-worth individuals and corporate contacts who may benefit from broader luxury event management services, feeding these into the wider team.

Why you’ll love it:

• Unmatched prestige: Represent a market-leading British agency with an exceptional global portfolio.
• Significant financial reward: £50k base with a highly competitive, uncapped commission structure designed to reward top performers.
• Career catalyst: Play a key role in launching and scaling an international brand in a fast-growing market such as Dubai, with clear progression into senior leadership.

The ideal fit:

You don’t wait for opportunities—you create them. You are self-motivated, commercially sharp, and driven by results, with a track record that speaks for itself.

If this sounds like your next move, we’d love to hear from you.
