Why this role matters
As a Small Opportunities Seller / Business Development Specialist, you’ll serve as the operational and commercial focal point for ICEYE’s small opportunity pipeline — managing all opportunities below €100K originating from marketing, partners, inbound interest, and referrals. You’ll capture, qualify, track, and drive these opportunities through a structured and scalable process — combining business development, sales execution, process optimisation, and data‑driven pipeline management.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building efficient systems, engaging with customers, and helping scale a fast‑growing geospatial business through standardisation, automation, and collaboration.

Ensure disqualified opportunities are properly documented and communicated to relevant stakeholders.

Coordinate with channel partners, e.g., resellers and agents, to drive intake of transactional opportunities.

Serve as credible face of ICEYE to channel partners: educate channel partners on ICEYE capabilities; promote ICEYE capabilities to channel partners, and support partners’ queries to ICEYE.
