Job description

About The Role:

A high-end, international interior design studio is seeking a motivated and ambitious Business Development Coordinator to join their dedicated team. This is one of the top studios in the industry and offers scope for growth and development.

Working closely with the Founder and other C-Suite members, this role differs from a traditional outward-facing business development position. Instead of chasing leads, the focus is on managing, tracking, and coordinating new business activity internally. The studio already attracts a significant volume of inbound interest, and this role will ensure that every enquiry is handled with professionalism and consistency. You’ll represent the brand at the first stage of engagement but won’t be expected to proactively generate leads or pursue sales. Your work will centre on monitoring, responding, and preparing, making sure opportunities are captured, contracts are accurate, and senior leaders are fully supported in client-facing discussions.

Offering an array of benefits including hybrid working, flexitime, enhanced annual leave and pension plans, team breakfasts, private health insurance and more, plus the opportunity to develop your career with one of the most exciting and well-known brands in the industry, this is a position not to be missed!

Key Responsibilities:

• Managing the new business inbox and responding to incoming queries
• Maintain and update CRM systems, contact lists, and pipeline trackers
• Conduct research on prospective clients, markets, and competitors
• Preparing, issuing, and reviewing contracts (using established templates)
• Help plan and deliver client events, networking opportunities, and studio initiatives
• Liaise with internal teams to gather project information, case studies, and assist with meeting preparation and follow up

Key Skills/Requirements:

• Previous experience in a similar BD, client facing role (architecture/design sector preferred)
• Exceptional organisational and multitasking skills, with strong attention to detail
• Excellent written and verbal communication
• Proactive, adaptable, and able to prioritise effectively in a fast-paced environment
• Collaborative team player with a professional and positive attitude and comfortable working with senior stakeholders
