About Magnific

Magnific is a global leader in visual content and AI-powered creativity. Our mission is to democratize design and unlock creative potential at scale. With over 1 million monthly subscribers worldwide, we help individuals and enterprises create, scale and innovate with AI.

On the B2B side, we work with enterprise brands, agencies and creative teams that use Magnific to produce world-class visual content — and APAC is one of our biggest growth opportunities.

The role

We're looking for a Business Development Representative to open and grow the APAC market — for now, the only BDR fully dedicated to the region.

You’ll be the first point of contact between Magnific and some of the most exciting brands, agencies and creative teams in APAC. That means qualifying inbound leads until they’re sales-ready and, above all, building outbound pipeline: identifying the right accounts, researching them properly, and starting conversations that feel relevant and well-timed rather than pushy. We believe in thoughtful, personalized outreach — quality over volume.

You’ll work closely with our Account Executives on target accounts and messaging, and with the wider B2B Marketing team on campaigns and events. You’ll have real ownership of the region: as our only BDR on APAC hours, you’ll shape how Magnific shows up in the market, backed by a team that has already built this playbook in EMEA and North America.

What you’ll do

• Build and own the outbound pipeline for APAC: research target accounts, identify the right stakeholders, and run personalized outreach sequences across email, LinkedIn and social selling.
• Qualify inbound leads from the region using the BANT framework and nurture them until they’re sales-ready, then hand them off cleanly to Account Executives.
• Partner with AEs on target account strategy: agree on priority accounts, test messaging, and iterate based on what resonates in each market.
• Use modern sales engagement and AI tools to work smarter — automating the repetitive parts so you can spend your time on research, relevance and conversations.
• Support regional campaigns and events: help drive attendance from target accounts and follow up with leads after webinars and events.
• Bring market intelligence back to the team: what APAC prospects care about, how they buy, and where Magnific should double down.
• Keep the CRM clean and your pipeline data reliable, so we can measure what works and scale it.

What we’re looking for

• 2–5 years of experience in business development, sales development or outbound-focused roles in B2B SaaS — you’ve built pipeline through outbound prospecting and can show it.
• Experience selling into APAC markets and a good understanding of how buying works across the region — the cultural nuances, the pace, the channels that matter.
• Fluent English plus at least one other APAC-region language. Every additional language is a big plus.
• A research-first approach to outreach: you’d rather send ten highly relevant messages than a hundred generic ones, and you know how to make a first touch feel welcome.
• Hands-on experience with sales engagement platforms (e.g. Outreach, Apollo, Salesloft or similar) and comfort adopting AI tools into your workflow.
• High autonomy: you’ll be our only BDR on APAC hours, so you can organize your own day, prioritize well, and collaborate asynchronously with a team based mostly in Europe.
• Based in Singapore, or willing to relocate.

Nice to have

• Familiarity with the creative industry, design tools or AI creative platforms — our buyers are creative and marketing teams.
• Experience working with Salesforce.
• Experience opening or growing a market with a high degree of ownership.
• Experience supporting or attending B2B events and following up on event-sourced leads.

Why join Magnific?

• Be part of a global leader in AI-powered creativity, at the moment we’re opening APAC — real ownership, real impact.
• Remote work model from Singapore, with flexible hours.
• Competitive compensation package.
• Private health insurance
• 23 days of vacation, plus your birthday off.
• Learning and development opportunities, including language lessons.
• Mental health and wellbeing support.
• A collaborative, international team spanning Europe, North America and now APAC.

Magnific is committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and evaluate every candidate based on their skills, experience and potential.
