From one day to the next, you'll get the chance to:

• Agree high-value deals to deliver inspiring new partner locations, leveraging your expertise to expand the IWG network in every town and city
• Hunt out exciting opportunities in commercial buildings of all types across your region, pitch for new partnership opportunities, convince partners to invest anywhere from £250k to £1m+ to develop a new IWG branded centre and close out deals quickly & effectively
• Showcase the value of the IWG partnership proposition to your network of B2B connections

Required Skills, Experience & Qualifications

You'll need to be passionate about working in a high-growth sector and ready to play a leading role in disrupting the commercial real-estate industry.
