Company Description Fermata is a full-service marketing agency based in Dubai, partnering with ambitious brands to accelerate sustained growth. Our flagship Marketing 360° offering delivers strategy, brand, content, social, SEO, paid media and PR within a single, senior-led retainer, eliminating fragmentation and handoffs. We operate with a strong emphasis on rigour, insight and measurable results, ensuring every brief is challenged and every channel serves a clear purpose. Role Description The Business Development Manager is a full-time, on-site role based in Dubai. You will own new business end to end, from first contact through to signed client. Day to day you will run outbound outreach across LinkedIn and email, book and lead discovery calls with founders and decision makers, and close new clients onto our retainers. You will own the pipeline, keep the CRM accurate, follow up relentlessly, and report on what is driving results. This is a senior seat with real ownership, so you will carry the number and run the process independently rather than waiting to be managed. The role is paid as a base salary plus commission on every deal you close, including recurring commission for as long as the client remains with us.
