We’re Hiring! Join Venture Harbour as Our Head of Business Development

Since launching Venture Harbour last November, things have certainly been busy around here. We’ve spoken at events in Iceland and the south of France, built up a portfolio of wonderful clients, and even had a bit of time left over to find ourselves a lovely new office right on the seafront near Brighton Pier, which we move into tomorrow!



As such, the time has come for us to invite a Head of Business Development onto the team to lead and oversee the growth of new business and to develop and maintain relationships with key partners.


As a small, yet ambitious and fast growing company, this exciting role comes with a lot of responsibility and opportunity to grow personally and professionally with the company. Our goal as a company is to be the best digital marketing agency for companies in the music, film, and gaming industries. You’ll help make that happen.


What this role entails

You will be responsible for generating new business for the company, and contributing towards the company’s overall vision and strategy. Day-to-day this will likely involve…



Developing, reviewing, and reporting on our business development strategy, and improving how we find new business.
Meeting potential clients and identifying their needs.
Writing proposals for interested potential clients.
Representing Venture Harbour at national and international conferences in the music, film, gaming, and digital marketing industries.
Developing and maintaining relationships with clients and key partners.
Marketing our services through partnerships, blogging, speaking arrangements, email marketing, case studies, and white papers.

We’re looking for someone with previous experience in business development, and a strong foundation in digital marketing – or the superhuman ability to learn it quickly. You must be comfortable with using a CRM system, writing proposals, and be able to interpret analytics to produce projections and ROI calculations with ease.


Most importantly of all, we’re looking for someone who is…

Positive and optimistic
Highly driven, naturally motivated to improve, and hard working
Productive and good with time management
Honest and trustworthy
Passionate about the industries we specialise in
A natural people person
And shows a high level of initiative.

Being well connected in the industries we specialise in, or having previous agency experience is a big plus.


If this sounds like your dream job, and you think you have what it takes, please apply by sending your CV and cover letter explaining why you think you’d be a good fit for this role to marcus(at)ventureharbour(dot)com.
