Job description

Networker / Business Development - Commercial Office Design & Build

London

Highly Competitive Base + Commission (£400,000-£500,000 OTE)

I’m working with one of the UK’s leading commercial office Design & Build businesses, looking to bring in a well-connected commercial agent from the London office market to introduce new workplace projects.

This is a senior, relationship-driven role for someone with 10 to 15 years in commercial office agency and an extensive network of occupiers, landlords, developers and senior property decision-makers. You’ll use those relationships and your market knowledge to spot and introduce Design & Build opportunities, rather than negotiating leases or advising on transactions.

This isn’t a traditional sales or cold-calling role. It’s a strategic relationship role, and Design & Build experience isn’t essential. The priority is the network and the ability to turn relationships into real projects.

What you’ll be doing:

• Using your network of commercial property contacts to generate new Design & Build opportunities
• Spotting businesses considering relocations, refurbishments, expansions or workplace transformations
• Building relationships with CEOs, CFOs, Corporate Real Estate Directors, Property Directors and Heads of Workplace
• Developing strategic relationships with agents, landlords, developers, asset managers and tenant representatives
• Generating qualified project introductions for the wider business
• Working with senior leadership, pre-construction and design teams to convert opportunities into secured projects
• Representing the business at industry events, networking functions and senior client meetings
• Sharing market intelligence on occupier activity, lease events and relocation requirements
• Building long-term relationships that drive repeat business and referrals

What’s on offer:

• £400,000-£500,000 OTE
• Highly competitive base salary plus a substantial performance-related commission structure
• Significant autonomy and influence over business development strategy
• The chance to work alongside an established senior leadership team
• Access to a highly regarded workplace design and delivery offering
• Long-term career opportunities within a leading Design & Build business

Requirements:

• 10 to 15 years’ experience in commercial office agency, ideally in the London market
• Background in office leasing, tenant representation, occupier advisory or commercial property consultancy
• An extensive, active network of senior contacts across London’s commercial office market
• Established relationships with corporate occupiers making significant property decisions
• Proven track record of winning new business through networking and strategic introductions
• Confident engaging and influencing C-suite stakeholders
• Highly credible in the market, entrepreneurial and focused on long-term relationships

If you’ve spent years building relationships across London’s property market and fancy putting them to work in a new way, this one’s worth a chat.
