Job description

Own the owner acquisition pipeline for Dubai's fastest-growing holiday home management company. This is a high-impact, high-autonomy role with direct access to leadership and uncapped earning potential.

As Business Development Manager at VayK, you are responsible for growing our managed property portfolio. You will identify, approach, and close property owners — converting them from prospects into long-term managed clients. This is the highest-impact commercial role in the company.

You will own the full acquisition cycle: from lead generation and first outreach to property tours, proposals, and signed management agreements. You'll also work closely with our operations team to ensure a smooth handover once a deal closes.

Core Responsibilities

• Proactively identify and qualify property owner leads via real estate agents, brokers, investor networks, and direct outreach
• Own the full sales cycle from first contact to signed agreement
• Build and maintain a structured pipeline — track progress in CRM and report weekly
• Partner with the marketing team on owner-facing campaigns and content
• Attend industry events, property expos, and networking sessions to build relationships
• Provide feedback from the market to inform service and pricing strategy
• Work with operations to ensure a seamless onboarding experience for new owners

What We're Looking For

• 3–6 years of B2C or B2B sales experience, ideally in Dubai real estate, property management, or hospitality
• Track record of hitting and exceeding revenue targets in a consultative sales environment
• Strong communicator in English; additional languages (Arabic, Russian, French, German) are a significant advantage
• Self-starter — you don't need a script to pick up the phone and book a meeting
• Comfortable with CRM tools, data-driven pipeline management, and regular reporting
• UAE driving licence preferred

What Makes This Role Different

Most BD roles in property management in Dubai involve being handed leads and following a script. This one doesn't. You'll be expected to build the pipeline, shape the pitch, and have real input on the commercial strategy of a growing company.

You'll work directly with the founders. There is no committee approval process, no waiting for sign-off on a proposal. If you have a good idea, you act on it.

The Package

What VayK Offers

Competitive Base + Commission

Market-rate base salary with an uncapped commission structure tied directly to the portfolio you build.

UAE Residency Visa

Full UAE work visa provided. We also support candidates relocating from abroad.

VayK is scaling from 120 to 200+ properties. BD is the engine of that growth — you'll feel that from day one.

Real Ownership

You own the pipeline, the pitch, and the strategy. There's no micromanagement and no endless approval chains.

Central Dubai Office

Ibn Battuta Gate Offices, easily accessible from Marina, JBR, and across the city.

Direct Founder Access

You'll work alongside the founders daily. If you have ideas, they'll be heard and acted on quickly.
