The role

We are currently seeking the services of a Business Development Executive to help drive and develop new business across Charlestown Square.

With over 280 retailers, Charlestown Square is the largest centre in the Hunter Region offering a vibrant mix of fashion, dining and entertainment.

The Business Development Executive is responsible for creating new business across casual mall leasing, media, and brand activation income lines via outbound sales.

This is a broad, dynamic role focused on the generation and management of all third party revenue other than income generated via a retail lease, electricity agreements and car park.

What you will be doing

• Delivering allocated budget and occupancy across all relevant income lines; CML, Media and Storage.
• Developing and executing key strategies to achieve stretch income targets and opportunities.
• Driving new revenue opportunities that deliver commercial returns and enhance the customer experience.
• Developing and maintaining strong relationships with prospective clients and media agencies, providing a high level of solution-focused customer service.
• Identifying key market and business trends to drive first to market retail experiences and leverage emerging retail categories.
• Developing and executing an annual Business Development Strategy aligned to the Asset Business Plan.

What makes you stand out
