About Us
BRIGHTSCOUT is a global B2B branding and development agency specializing in elevating emerging tech businesses through uniquely crafted brands and standout apps. Comprised of top-tier talent worldwide, we offer a powerful blend of exquisite design, robust development, and strategic acumen. More than a company, Brightscout is a tribe dedicated to disrupting the tech industry with bold ideas and collaborative genius.

The Role

As a Business Development Manager at BRIGHTSCOUT, you’ll be responsible for driving net-new revenue. This position combines hunter instincts with deal-making acumen. You’ll own the sales cycle end-to-end: from prospecting and discovery, through proposal development, negotiation, and close.

This is our first dedicated sales hire. Until now, business development has been founder-led, and a builder's mindset will be essential to your success.

You’ll partner directly with the co-founders and leadership team, shaping how BRIGHTSCOUT wins business across projects, retainers, and enterprise accounts.

Responsibilities

Pipeline Generation: Build and execute outbound campaigns to target ICP accounts, leveraging email, LinkedIn, and curated lists. Act as first responder for inbound leads with thoughtful, timely engagement. The role requires a relentless self-starting work ethic and aggressive prospecting using tools like LinkedIn, and cold email outreach to drive net-new business.
Discovery & Qualification: Run high-quality discovery calls to uncover business challenges, align to BRIGHTSCOUT’s services (branding, product design, development, flex-team retainers), and assess fit.
Proposal & RFP Ownership: Lead proposal creation—working with design/strategy support to package content, refine messaging, and customize pricing. Own RFP responses from start to finish.
Deal Management & Closing: Drive opportunities through the pipeline. Present solutions, negotiate terms, and close deals with minimal executive involvement.
Pricing & Structuring: Recommend deal structures, budgets, and engagement models (project-based, retainer, or hybrid). Ensure proposals balance client needs and agency profitability.
Sales Ops and Reporting: Maintain a clean, accurate CRM and accurately forecasting weekly/monthly pipeline activity for leadership. Build and improve systems, workflows, and playbooks to streamline the sales process and reduce founder involvement.
Market Intelligence: Share insights from the field—competitor positioning, buyer objections, emerging trends—to refine BRIGHTSCOUT’s sales playbook.
Process Improvement: Continuously evolve sales systems, collateral, and best practices to improve win rates and shorten deal cycles.

Requirements

3+ years of full-cycle sales experience in B2B digital services, focusing on a proven track record of hitting monthly/quarterly quotas of qualified opportunities and closed deals.
Strong communicator and storyteller; comfortable running executive-level conversations, presenting proposals, and negotiating contracts.
Skilled in structuring complex deals, including retainers and multi-stakeholder enterprise engagements.
Hands-on with CRM and outreach platforms (Attio, Apollo, Clay) or similar tools.
Organized, self-motivated, and driven by metrics—but also adaptable to a founder-led, high-growth environment.
Familiarity with branding, UX/UI, and development services preferred.
