About the role

TSL Thailand is looking for a dynamic and experienced Business Development Executive to lead and drive advertising revenue growth. The role suits a strategic thinker who enjoys the media industry, has a proven track record in building high-value client relationships, running end-to-end sales and spotting new business opportunities, and can manage cross-functional teams while representing the brand well.

Key responsibilities

• Plan and execute sales for TSL Thailand, including generating leads through creative approaches, new strategies and networking at launches and events.
• Meet clients regularly, in person and virtually, and maintain relationships on personal channels such as WhatsApp and Line to encourage repeat business.
• Work closely with the team so clients are handed over smoothly; colleagues handle execution but must be briefed properly, and you must resolve crises between client and team.
• The sales team issues the invoice (IO) to the client and hands the signed copy to the Country Manager before it counts as a sale; you follow up on payment delays after the campaign and earn no commission if a client defaults.
• Represent the company positively at all times and protect its reputation.
