About This Role

This role is less about general marketing and more about business development within the creative agency space. You are expected to act as a bridge between Visionary’s production capabilities and the corporate clients who need high-quality storytelling. It suits a marketing professional who is comfortable with cold outreach, relationship management, and closing high-value contracts rather than running social media campaigns.

What the Requirements Say About This Role

The emphasis on an existing network of contacts signals that Visionary is looking for someone who can hit the ground running with established relationships. They are not just hiring a strategist; they are hiring a rainmaker who already knows the key decision-makers in banking, telecom, and FMCG sectors. The 3-6 years of agency experience is a cue that they value industry familiarity over general marketing knowledge.

How to Approach This Application

Your application should lead with your contact list and past wins. Instead of listing generic marketing skills, mention specific clients you have worked with in the corporate or advertising space. If you have secured production contracts or managed high-value accounts before, highlight those numbers and outcomes. The employer will likely prioritize a cover letter that demonstrates your network and ability to close deals over a polished CV.

Best Fit

Who This Role Suits
