Job Description
In the events and exhibitions industry, the difference between a good pitch and a great one is not just about the deck—it is about understanding what a brand needs before they know it themselves. Vgetter is looking for a Business Development Manager who can read a brief, anticipate a client's unspoken requirements, and turn a conversation into a long-term partnership. This is a role for someone who sees every event as an opportunity to build something memorable, not just to sell a service.
This is not a desk job. It is for someone who enjoys being out in the field, meeting clients, attending exhibitions, and understanding the pulse of the market. You will be responsible for generating new business opportunities across events, exhibitions, branding, activations, and creative production. You will identify and approach potential clients across the UAE, build strong relationships with corporate clients and agencies, and convert briefs into actionable business opportunities. You will prepare proposals, quotations, and presentations, coordinate with design and production teams, and ensure smooth execution from pitch to delivery. Your ability to follow up, negotiate, and close deals will be what sets you apart.
The ideal candidate brings two to three years of experience in business development or sales within events, exhibitions, branding, or creative production. You have strong client acquisition skills, a good understanding of brand execution and event production, and excellent communication and presentation abilities. You are comfortable handling multiple clients and projects under pressure, and you are flexible with working hours and regional travel. A UAE driving license is mandatory because you will be meeting clients across the country. Arabic speakers will have an advantage, but it is not a requirement.
Salary:
AED 7,000 – 10,000 per month
To apply:
Share your CV to hr@vgetter.ae with the subject line: "BDM – Events & Branding."
To make your application stand out, provide specific examples of business development wins in the events or branding space—mention the value of the deals, the clients you secured, and how you approached the sales process. In your cover letter, briefly describe a campaign or activation you were involved in from pitch to execution, highlighting your role in converting the brief into a successful project. Mention your UAE driving license and your willingness to travel, as this is a key requirement for the role. Finally, demonstrate your understanding of the events and branding landscape by referencing current trends or challenges in the industry, showing that you are not just a salesperson but someone who understands the world your clients operate in.
Feel free to share this opportunity with anyone in your network who might be a strong fit.
