The Global Head of Business Development is a senior leader who will define, build, and lead Opus Agency’s global business development motion, with a primary focus on attracting and growing new clients across regions.
Your core responsibility is to drive new client growth for Opus Agency worldwide, both by personally leading strategic pursuits and by building and leading the focused business development team that can scale this work.
You will take our vision for a modern go-to-market approach and bring it fully to life, translating it into the operating model, teams, tools, and pursuits that drive growth.
