Business Development Lead - Hubble

DESCRIPTION

This role is for someone who has been in the industry for a few years and is fed up with the inefficiencies, lack of innovation and who has a vision for how the industry can be revolutionised by technology.

You will lead our efforts to build partnerships with our flexible office provider clients and build disruptive products for the industry. A key problem solver for the business internally and externally, you will be working directly with the founders to impact our global flexible office strategy.

The role will vary day to day and will include, but not be limited to: relationship building with the flexible office sector to build and sell Hubble solutions; advising clients on flexible & managed office requirements; advising clients on operational solutions to help them run their own flexible office spaces; and working closely with the product teams to build disruptive technology for flexible office providers.

You should be willing to get stuck in, with a very ‘hands-on’ approach and work autonomously in a fast-paced, constantly changing environment. You’ll need to be able to build, lead and communicate with cross functional teams from marketing to engineering and hire a team that works alongside you.

The ability to think critically about traditional approaches in the flexible office sector and how technology can be applied to make them more efficient is really important; the ability to execute on these ideas is critical.
