We’re looking for a motivated German-speaking Business Development Executive to join a growing team in London. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with experience in B2B sales, business development or lead generation to play a key role in expanding the company’s presence across Germany, Austria and Switzerland (DACH).

You’ll be responsible for identifying new prospects, initiating conversations and developing early-stage client relationships, working closely with the senior sales team to build a strong pipeline of new business opportunities.

The Role

• Proactively identify and engage potential new clients through cold calling and networking
• Generate, qualify and develop new business leads
• Secure meetings and appointments for the senior sales team
• Build and maintain a strong sales pipeline, nurturing early-stage relationships
• Research the DACH market to identify potential clients, decision-makers and new opportunities
• Work closely with senior stakeholders to develop effective outreach strategies
• Track and report on lead activity, pipeline performance and conversion
• Collaborate with regional and global teams to share market insights and opportunities

About You

• 1–3+ years’ experience in business development, sales or another client-facing B2B role
• Proven experience in lead generation, outbound sales or appointment setting
• Professional fluency in German and English is essential
• Confident communicator with strong relationship-building and negotiation skills
• Proactive, motivated and target-driven
• Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple priorities
• Comfortable working with CRM systems and using data to track performance

Desirable Experience

Experience within commercial real estate, design & build, architecture, construction or professional services would be advantageous, but is not essential.

What Success Looks Like

In this role, you’ll be successful by consistently generating high-quality leads, securing new meetings, growing the sales pipeline and building strong relationships with prospective clients across the DACH region.

You’ll join a collaborative and inclusive team where you’ll have the opportunity to develop your career, work across European markets and make a direct contribution to business growth.
