The Company is seeking a Business Development Director to play a pivotal role in scaling its business. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and implementing a comprehensive business development strategy that aligns with the company's growth objectives. This includes identifying and pursuing new business opportunities with key partners in the luxury goods industry, such as department stores, travel retail operators, and luxury brands. The role involves building and maintaining strong relationships with decision-makers, educating clients about the benefits of the company's turn-key solution, and negotiating and closing deals.

Applicants for the Business Development Director position at the company should have a proven track record in business development, particularly through strategic partnerships, and a deep understanding of the luxury goods industry.

A Bachelor's degree in business, marketing, or a related field is required, with an MBA being a plus.
