Business Development Lead

This is not a junior role.

This is for someone who knows how to open doors, close retainers, and get paid properly for it.

About Brandscend

Brandscend is an independent, Sydney-based media and branding agency built for the attention economy. We partner with ambitious brands that want real commercial outcomes — not vanity metrics.

Our work spans Paid Media (Traditional & Digital), Full-Funnel Marketing, Branding, Social Media Management, Branded Content, Web Design, and Publication Design. Everything we do is strategic, custom, and performance-driven.

We’re growing and we’re looking for a high-performing business developer who wants uncapped earning potential, autonomy, and the freedom to build something meaningful.

The Opportunity

This is a commission-only role designed for a closer, not a clock-watcher.

You’ll be responsible for identifying, qualifying, and closing new clients into ongoing retainer relationships. You’ll own the sales process end-to-end, with full support from our Founder.

If you can sell and want your income to reflect that, this role will suit you.

What You’ll Do

• Identify and pursue new business opportunities aligned with Brandscend’s ideal client profile
• Generate, qualify, and nurture high-value marketing leads
• Lead discovery conversations and close clients onto retainers
• Build trusted, long-term relationships with decision-makers and founders
• Collaborate internally to ensure smooth onboarding and client success
• Stay across market trends and competitor activity to inform smarter outreach
• Consistently meet and exceed revenue targets (because that’s how you earn)

Who This Is For

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Have a proven track record in B2B sales or business development, ideally in marketing, media, or digital
• Are confident selling high-value services on retainer (not one-off projects)
• Are self-directed, commercially sharp, and motivated by performance-based income
• Know how to manage your own pipeline, time, and priorities
• Communicate clearly, build trust quickly, and close decisively
• Back yourself enough to choose commission over salary

A degree is not required.... results are.

What You Get

• Uncapped commission with strong earning potential
• Fully remote, Australia-based role
• Autonomy, flexibility, and zero micromanagement
• The opportunity to grow into a senior commercial, full-time role as the agency scales

This Role Is Not For You If:

• You need a base salary to feel motivated
• You’re early-career or still “learning sales”
• You’re uncomfortable owning outcomes end-to-end
• You prefer being managed rather than trusted
• If you’re a closer who wants freedom, upside, and a brand worth selling, we should talk.
