BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER AT SIX & FLOW

As much as we love the recruiters out there, and by gosh I bet you “have some great candidates to send” our way… This one isn’t for you. Right now, we want to find our own new addition. It just makes it feel like we’ve really put the effort in… Know what we mean? More fulfilling if you will, if we do it ourselves. It’s not you, it’s us. When and if we do decide to go out to recruiters, we already have several relationships with agencies in place. If you’re not already one of them, then we don’t need you, sorry.

We are looking for a business development manager to join our inbound marketing agency, helping us grow our team.

Six & Flow is a growth agency working primarily in digital, with massive ambitions and very exciting plans moving forward. For all of our work, the end goal is always to create positive ROI for our clients. We help them grow.

We partner with our clients. We don’t just provide services, which is why it’s important the clients are the right fit for us, and us for them. We get involved from beginning to end so for us it’s important to bring on the right clients that fit our business, the way we work and that we feel we can offer some real value to.

Our clients (new and old) all fit the following mould:

  • Clients we love working with (and have a good relationship with)
  • Brands, services and products we believe in
  • Clients we feel we can really add some value to

We believe that when we’re a good fit for our clients and likewise them for us, it makes for a nicer way to work and for nicer projects to be involved with.

We work as both a retained agency and also as a venture marketing agency. We love startups and entrepreneurs so if it’s something we can see some real potential in or if it really excites us, we love to get involved.
