  • Support on client tender documents (e.g. RFIs/RFPs).
  • Organize and attend networking events to increase the agency's visibility in the industry.
  • Manage the agency's digital presence, driving content for social media and ensuring consistency in brand messaging.
  • Research speaking opportunities at industry events and conferences.


About You

You are a proactive and experienced professional with a background in business development in the design industry. You are passionate about brand and design, and you thrive in creative, fast-paced environments. Your communication skills allow you to build rapport easily with prospects and colleagues, and you excel at creating and managing growth initiatives.
