At Palm Outsourcing, we don't just fill seats; we build elite teams. We continuously partner with top-tier clients looking for exceptional international talent.

Opportunity Overview

Our client is a London-based financial and commercial services company operating in the digital media space, helping independent content businesses grow and monetise more effectively. They are expanding their commercial team and looking for a driven Business Development Executive to own creator acquisition from first outreach through to signed partnership.

Role Description

As BDE, you will prospect, engage, and convert target accounts into long-term clients, then manage those relationships independently without escalating to leadership. You will work within a structured outbound sales function, owning your pipeline end-to-end and hitting targets through consistent activity, strong communication, and sound commercial judgement. This role suits someone who is hungry, organised, and has a proven track record of closing in a Western B2B or professional services environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Outbound Prospecting – Identify and research target accounts that fit the company's ideal client profile across digital platforms.
• Pipeline Management – Build and maintain a healthy, well-qualified pipeline and move opportunities efficiently from first contact to close.
• Outreach Execution – Run structured multi-channel outreach campaigns across cold calling, email, LinkedIn, and social to generate and convert interest.
• Relationship Ownership – Serve as the primary point of contact for signed clients, managing ongoing communication and satisfaction independently.
• Deal Coordination – Work with internal teams to scope and structure commercial terms appropriate to each client's profile and needs.
• Performance Reporting – Track activity, conversion rates, and pipeline health; report clearly against agreed targets on a regular cadence.

Minimum Qualifications

• Sales Track Record – 2+ years in a BDR, SDR, Sales Executive, or similar outbound role with demonstrated quota attainment.
• Closing Ability – Proven capacity to take a deal from cold outreach to signed agreement without heavy management support.
• Communication Skills – Strong written and verbal English (C1+), capable of representing the business credibly at every stage of the sales cycle.
• CRM Proficiency – Comfortable managing pipeline and activity in standard CRM tools (HubSpot, Salesforce, or equivalent).
• Remote Work Discipline – Demonstrated ability to deliver results autonomously in a fully remote setting.
• Western Market Experience – Direct experience working with or selling to Western clients or companies, with fluency in UK or US professional norms.

Bonus Qualifications

• Digital Media Exposure – Some familiarity with the online content, influencer, or digital media landscape, whether professionally or personally.
• Early-Stage Experience – Prior experience working in a startup or scale-up environment where process is still being built.

Benefits

• Top-of-the-market pay.
• Remote working.
• Potential for flexible hours.
• Becoming a part of Palm Outsourcing, where your performance is rewarded in long-term job security and continued growth opportunities.
