Business Development Manager - French Market

Oppizi helps businesses measure and scale offline marketing.

Our technology enables brands to launch, measure and optimise offline customer acquisition campaigns across Hand-to-Hand, Door-to-Door and Direct Mail, with the same level of accountability expected from digital marketing.

Today, we operate in more than 10 countries and partner with brands including Uber Eats, DoorDash, Deliveroo, DiDi and many more.

As we continue to invest in our commercial organisation, we've brought our Business Development team together in Barcelona to build a collaborative international hub. We're now looking for a French-speaking Business Development Manager to help grow one of our most strategic markets.

The role

This role combines two key responsibilities:

New Business

Strategic Growth

Beyond your own pipeline, you'll contribute to improving our sales playbook, messaging and AI-driven workflows by sharing what you learn from the market.

• Build a consistent pipeline through outbound prospecting.
• Manage opportunities confidently from first conversation to close.
• Close your first new customers.
