Business Development Manager - Media Production

W3Global
Detroit, MI Full Time
POSTED ON 5/9/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/8/2026
Creative Marketing Agency - Midwest Growth Focus

Our agency is expanding, and we're looking for a driven sales and business development professional to help us grow and diversify our client base across the Midwest. This role is ideal for someone who understands the creative‑agency world-branding, digital marketing, content production, design, and campaign strategy-and knows how to translate that expertise into meaningful client relationships. Candidates with established B2B relationships, especially within Fortune 500 organizations, will thrive in this role and accelerate our growth trajectory.

This position can be remote, with a strong preference for someone based in-or deeply connected to-the Midwest market.

What You'll Do

  • Build and manage a healthy pipeline of new business opportunities across the Midwest
  • Leverage existing B2B relationships, particularly within enterprise and Fortune 500 environments, to open doors and accelerate growth
  • Identify, pursue, and close partnerships with brands that align with our agency's creative strengths
  • Develop outreach strategies that diversify our client portfolio and expand into new verticals
  • Represent the agency in meetings, pitches, and industry events with confidence and clarity
  • Collaborate with internal creative and strategy teams to shape proposals that win
  • Track performance metrics and refine your approach based on results
  • Maintain strong relationships with prospects and clients to encourage long‑term growth

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in sales, business development, or account growth within a creative, marketing, or advertising agency
  • Existing B2B relationships-ideally with enterprise‑level or Fortune 500 companies-that can translate into meaningful opportunities
  • Strong understanding of agency services and how to position them effectively
  • A proactive, self‑directed approach to prospecting and relationship building
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills
  • Comfort working in a fast‑moving, entrepreneurial environment
  • A growth mindset and genuine excitement about expanding our footprint in the Midwest
  • Ability to work remotely while staying connected to Midwest markets, clients, and opportunities

What We Offer

  • We're committed to hiring the right person, not the right number. Compensation will be tailored to the experience, skill set, and value the candidate brings.
  • We don't publish a range because we don't want to limit who applies-or who we hire. Our compensation plan will include a 401k match, health insurance, PTO, base salary and a commission structure that we will tailor to the individual based on their experience level.
  • You'll join a team that values creativity, collaboration, and forward‑thinking strategy, with room to shape the role as our business grows!
