As the regional Business Development Manager, you'll drive market growth for garage door and automation solutions under the Dominator and Garador brands through our licensed dealer network, aligned distributors, builders, merchants, and key accounts.
Acting as a trusted business partner to our dealer network, you'll help build capability, strengthen customer relationships, uncover new opportunities, and support profitable growth. With significant autonomy, you'll take ownership of your territory, expanding market penetration and delivering sustainable commercial outcomes.

What we're looking for
We’re open-minded on industry background — sales capability matters most
- Proven success in B2B sales, ideally with solution/consultative selling (not commodity selling)
- Strong prospecting and “hunter” capability — you enjoy winning new business
- Excellent relationship-building and stakeholder management skills
- High autonomy, time management and territory planning discipline
- Energy, resilience, and a competitive, action-oriented mindset
This could suit an experienced BDM or a high-potential seller ready for a bigger territory and more ownership.
