Business Development Manager

We're partnered with a leading shipping and logistics group in Dubai who are appointing a Business Development Manager to grow their commercial reach into Greater China. This is a business with deep roots across the Middle East and a growing footprint into Asia, with this hire focused on opening new trade relationships and turning market knowledge into genuine commercial opportunities. You'll be client facing from day one, building relationships with freight forwarders, shipowners, charterers, manufacturers and traders, and converting those relationships into real business. A Dubai based role, but one that demands fluent Mandarin, given the nature of the business development targets you'll be working towards. We're talking to candidates with strong commercial experience in shipping, logistics or freight forwarding, ideally gained within the Middle East and Africa region. If this is you, or someone in your network, get in touch. Show more Show less
