Executive Recruitment Specialist – Matching top senior talent to the best opportunities worldwide

Want to sell something that brings real joy to people’s lives?

We’re working with a trusted, award-winning company with over 75 years of heritage in designing and delivering inclusive outdoor recreational solutions — from playground equipment to outdoor fitness spaces and urban park furniture.

As they expand globally, they’re hiring a Senior Business Development Manager to take charge of direct and channel sales efforts across key international markets. This is a rare opportunity to combine your commercial expertise with a mission-driven organisation that’s improving lives through play, health, and community spaces.

What you’ll be doing:

• Managing and growing a portfolio of clients across public and private sectors (e.g. municipalities, schools, architects, developers)
• Developing new sales opportunities with direct clients and through distributors/channel partners
• Representing a product suite that includes modular playground systems (e.g. UniPlay, UniMini), fitness stations, and street furniture
• Travelling occasionally for trade shows, client meetings, and site visits
• Working remotely with a collaborative, international team

What we’re looking for:

• Strong experience (min 5 years) in solution-based B2B sales, ideally within outdoor recreational equipment, construction materials, playgrounds, or landscape design
• Familiarity with public sector procurement or working with distributors/partners
• Confident, self-motivated, and able to work independently
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills in English (German, Spanish, or Polish is a big plus)
• Passion for making a positive social impact through accessible outdoor spaces

If you're a commercially minded professional who thrives in a high-integrity, purpose-driven environment — this role could be a perfect next step.
