Job description

Brief Overview
We are hiring a driven and strategic Business Development Manager (BDM) to own the entire lead-to-solution cycle for tier 1 accounts in the EMEA region. You will build and nurture relationships with decision-makers, guide prospects through discovery and qualification, and develop solution-fit conversations. Once the opportunity reaches maturity, you’ll hand it over to the Sales team, while staying involved as a supporting stakeholder.
This is a high-responsibility role with autonomy. While you will receive some support from BDRs, you are expected to generate and convert pipeline independently and be fully accountable for your own targets.
Key Responsibilities
  • Own the Process:
     Manage the journey from first contact to sales handover. Lead discovery, develop business cases, and align stakeholders.
  • Develop & Convert Pipeline:
     Independently build and drive opportunity pipeline across assigned accounts and regions, with light support from BDRs.
  • Strategic Targeting:
     Research, identify, and prioritize Tier 1 accounts. Use industry trends, trigger events, and account intelligence to guide outreach.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration:
     Work closely with marketing, solution engineers and sales to ensure continuity of information and effective handover once an opportunity is sales-ready.
  • Post-Handover Involvement:
     Remain involved after handover to ensure a consistent and informed customer experience.
  • Partner & Consultant Alignment:
     Engage relevant consultants and ecosystem partners to co-develop project opportunities and position Hai Robotics effectively.
  • Internal Contributions:
     Contribute to ongoing strategy projects (e.g., vertical positioning, market development plans, win/loss analysis).
