The role
We're looking for a Business Development Lead to open and own the Italian market. Italy is relationship-driven, and public-sector and critical-infrastructure deals are best won by someone already embedded in it - able to reach the right entities within one or two calls rather than months of cold prospecting.
You'll be the dedicated, on-the-ground driver of go-to-market in Italy, working alongside leadership who can fly in periodically to support key meetings - but who need a permanent, local presence to actually move deals.
What you'll do
Identify, approach,



and close business development opportunities with public sector bodies and large private operators across Italy
Build and activate a trusted network of decision-makers - municipalities, government and defence-adjacent entities, and large private operators (transport, logistics, security)
Move opportunities quickly from first contact to signed agreement, leveraging existing market relationships rather than starting cold
Act as the primary local point of contact for Italian prospects and clients, coordinating with leadership on deal strategy and the occasional in-person visit
Feed market intelligence back on local buying patterns, procurement processes, and competitive dynamics
What you bring
A proven business development / sales track record in Italy, with a network you can activate immediately
Native or fluent Italian and fluent English
Familiarity with Italian public procurement and how public-sector and large
