pNIRU Swiss is a Geneva-based B2B manufacturing platform serving the luxury, watch and jewellery industries. /p pFounded in 1979, we combine deep industry knowledge, trusted relationships, creativity and manufacturing expertise to develop distinctive products and commercial opportunities. Working discreetly behind leading brands, institutions and selected partners, our culture is shaped by a family spirit, long term relationships and our mission of Spreading Happiness. /p h3THE ROLE /h3 pWe are looking for an entrepreneurial Business Development Manager to join our team in Geneva. /p pThis is not a traditional sales position. We are looking for someone who understands, or is eager to master, the codes of luxury: its standards, relationships, attention to detail, and discretion. /p pYou may already be connected to the worlds of watches, jewellery and luxury, or you may bring experience and relationships from adjacent environments such as sport, hospitality, finance, private wealth, entrepreneurship, art, design or culture. /p pYou can walk into any room, engage naturally with almost anyone, and quickly understand what matters to them. But your strength goes beyond making connections: you can recognise the commercial potential within a conversation, imagine a product or partnership that creates genuine value and turn that idea into business. /p pYou see connections that others overlook. You are interested in unconventional channels, from communities and professional networks to family businesses, family offices and institutions. You listen carefully, uncover needs that may not yet have been expressed and translate them into imaginative products, partnerships and commercial opportunities. /p pCurious and creative, yet structured and commercially disciplined, you are comfortable stepping beyond familiar territory. You build relationships with ease, follow through with discipline and know how to move from trust to concept and from concept to sale. /p pAbove all, you share our belief that business should create lasting value while spreading happiness among everyone involved. /p h3KEY RESPONSIBILITIES /h3 ul liIdentify new B2B opportunities across luxury, watches, jewellery and distinctive objects /li liDevelop original commercial concepts using NIRU Swiss’s network, expertise and manufacturing capabilities /li liBuild trusted relationships with entrepreneurs, communities, institutions, professional organisations and influential networks /li liCreate strategic partnerships and open new channels of business for the NIRU Swiss platform /li liDevelop creative, relevant offerings for prospective clients /li liLead opportunities from the first conversation through proposal, development and completion /li liBuild and manage a strong pipeline of qualified opportunities /li liRepresent NIRU Swiss at meetings, events and industry gatherings /liliCollaborate closely with our leadership, commercial, creative and manufacturing teams /li /ul h3THE PROFILE WE ARE LOOKING FOR /h3 ul liA strong academic background, ideally from a leading business school, university or luxury-focused programme /li liRelevant experience in business development, partnerships, entrepreneurship, luxury, watches, jewellery or a related field /li liWe welcome both accomplished candidates and exceptional early career profiles who can demonstrate initiative, maturity and strong commercial potential /li liThe social confidence to enter unfamiliar environments, connect naturally with people at every level and transform promising conversations into relevant commercial opportunities /li liExcellent written and spoken French and English /li liOutstanding communication, presentation and relationship-building skills /li liIntellectual curiosity, creativity and the ability to connect ideas, people and opportunities /li liEntrepreneurial thinking, resourcefulness and strong personal initiative /li liThe confidence and credibility to engage with senior decision-makers /li liAn international outlook and a high degree of cultural sensitivity /li liExcellent standards of professionalism, discretion and integrity /li liBased in Geneva or willing to relocate /li /ul h3WHY JOIN NIRU SWISS? /h3 pYou will work directly with experienced leaders and gain exposure to the complete journey from an initial idea to a manufactured luxury product.
