Business Development Representative (Commercial Real Estate)

THE ROLE

This is a great opportunity for an exceptional candidate to join our Landlord team. As a Business Development Representative, you are dedicated to unlocking the city – that means finding spaces for the thousands of great ideas coming through our platform. You’ll be searching for, meeting, and leading landlords through the on-boarding process and getting them set up to trade on the platform. You'll be figuring out the pain points in the system and working tirelessly within a fast moving team to streamline these processes. You'll be thrown into the NYC Property industry and quickly be seen as an innovator and thought leader.

• The role requires a lot of hats. You will be Business Development, Sales and Account Management all rolled in to one package.
• Discovering the city and who owns the streets of NYC is key - you'll be out and about pitching the business in person and on the phone.
• Generate and manage a pipeline of prospective Landlords to sign up to Appear Here.
• Identify opportunities to open new sources of supply - talk to everyone, attend every event, whatever it takes to get more space!
• As a key member of the team, you'll also identify opportunities to scale our current operations. We don't settle, and neither will you - learning, feedback and new ideas are essential contributions from every member of the business.

CANDIDATE REQUIREMENTS

• You’ll have at least 2 years of outbound sales experience in a target-driven environment
• You're not afraid to pick up the phone and make friends, and close deals
• You are an entrepreneurial, self-starter who is smart, intuitive, focused on hitting targets and passionate about getting the deal done
• You're fierce and are always looking for "one more"
• You think of solutions before they become problems and are always one step ahead
• You are very organised and detailed - nothing gets by you!
• You love to learn on the job and approach your work with a lot of enthusiasm
• You’re a bit different: guts, drive and varied experience are more important than a degree or specific industry knowledge
• You're passionate about NYC as a city, and making it better
