Business Development Executive

Do you have a knack for spotting opportunities before anyone else does? Love turning conversations into lasting partnerships — and ideas into signed contracts?

We’re hiring on behalf of an award-winning architecture and interior design practice in Dubai that’s redefining what it means to create spaces. With international commissions spanning boutique hotels, high-end restaurants, luxury residences, and retail spaces, they blend innovation with functionality to craft environments that don’t just look beautiful — they work beautifully.

Now, they’re looking for a Business Development Executive — someone with the drive, network, and commercial edge to connect their world-class design expertise with the clients who need it most.

This isn’t just sales. It’s your chance to be the bridge between visionary design and market opportunity.

Who We’re Looking For

You’re a natural dealmaker who thrives on creating and sustaining relationships in competitive industries. Whether you’re pitching to a hotel developer, securing a partnership with a real estate group, or mapping out market opportunities, you know how to influence, negotiate, and close.

• 2 to 5 years of experience in business development or sales, ideally in architecture, interior design, real estate, or related industries
• UAE market experience (minimum 2+ years) with strong local networks
• Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business, or a related field (certifications in Business Development/Sales/Marketing are a plus)
• Strong sales, negotiation, and presentation skills with the ability to turn vision into signed deals
• A sharp sense of design trends and creative thinking to elevate proposals
• Excellent communication in English; Arabic is a plus

Your Mission

• Drive growth: Lead prospecting, identify new business opportunities, and develop a strong pipeline.
• Own relationships: Build, manage, and nurture client accounts with hospitality groups, developers, and investors.
• Pitch with impact: Deliver compelling presentations and proposals that secure service and fit-out contracts.
• Analyze and act: Research market trends, track competition, and shape strategies that keep the firm ahead.
• Collaborate: Work hand-in-hand with design and project teams to deliver on client needs.
• Promote the brand: Represent the firm at events, exhibitions, and networking opportunities, positioning them as the go-to design partner.

What’s In It For You

• Competitive base salary: AED 10,000 – 15,000 per month (negotiable based on experience) + lucrative commission scheme
• Growth platform: Be part of a globally recognized design practice, with direct impact on its pipeline and reputation.
• Creative environment: Collaborate with visionary architects and designers in a firm that thrives on innovation.
• Career acceleration: The more you build, the more you earn — and the faster your career scales.

Why This Role

If you’ve ever wanted to merge business acumen with design impact, this is the stage. You’ll not only open doors for the firm — you’ll help shape the skyline, interiors, and experiences that define how people live, stay, and gather in some of the world’s most remarkable spaces.
