Some company fruit, yesterday.
We're called The Design Conspiracy (in case you don't know anything about us have a look at our website here) and we're looking for a Business Development Manager.
Let's get one thing out of the way up front. Your job is about selling. There, I've said it. Horrible word. Selling.
That's your number one priority and we'll give you clear direction and sales targets. But we don't just want numbers. We don't want rubbish projects to make our figures look good. We want you to identify clients and projects that would fit well with our ethos and then facilitate those relationships.
We want you to understand, know and love design. We're going to ask you about this, so you'll need to know the difference between Peter Saville and Peter Sellers.
We want you to use your initiative and seek out opportunities rather than just following the crowd.
We want you to be energetic, tough, fun, lively and able to muck in. We want you to be organised, to love people and presenting. You will often be the first experience people have of The Design Conspiracy and so you'll need to embody all that the company stands for.
If we're being honest it's not all fun and glamour. We're a small company, we care about what we do immensely and we'll argue all night long about why something should be just so. We're very business focused and we have a very clear idea of what we want you to achieve and how we want to measure that.
In return we'll offer you a key role within a fast growing and exciting company. We're relaxed and flexible and you'll get to work with exciting brands such as 3 and adidas. We'll pay you a good salary (every month), we finish at 4pm on a Friday, you'll get a bonus on your birthday and you'll enjoy our Free Company Fruit Policy.
Interested?
Send your CV to me ([email protected]) or give me a call on 020 7405 0875 for a chat or a coffee, confidentiality guaranteed.
When are you going to open TDC International? Blimey.

You'd hate it Paul. Those bloody students jabbering away oustide the office would drive you potty.

It's the ones INSIDE that you need to insulate against.
