Requirements

-What will your day to day be like?-

This is a triangular role built on three complementary pillars: Design, Strategy, and Business Development.

You will:

  • Actively participate in project execution as an embedded designer within the local team, contributing direct production capacity and ensuring quality in deliverables.

  • Evolve and enrich the commercial narrative of the Bilbao studio, expanding the value proposition beyond its current scope — incorporating digital and experience layers into the portfolio.

  • Update the studio's storytelling and positioning, building a broader, more contemporary and differentiated offer.

  • Drive new business generation and active prospecting — identifying, approaching and converting new clients in the Bilbao market.

  • Design and execute networking events and formats (breakfasts, roundtables, etc.) to attract prospects and build brand awareness in Bilbao.

  • Develop a strategic growth plan, including a viability roadmap that identifies when and which additional profiles will be needed to sustain growth.

  • Work closely with the existing Bilbao team to integrate seamlessly and multiply the impact of existing relationships and networks.

-What are we looking for?-

  • Background in Industrial Design

  • Someone who can think, sell and make — with strategic vision, design sensibility and a genuine commercial vocation.

  • Strong business development skills: ability to prospect, build relationships, and close new clients.

  • Strategic mindset with the ability to craft and evolve a compelling value proposition.

  • Excellent communication and presentation skills — comfortable leading client conversations and pitches.

  • Experience working in or leading small, agile design teams.

  • Entrepreneurial spirit: someone who takes ownership, moves with initiative, and thrives in a growth context.

  • Fluent in Spanish and professional proficiency in English

  • Based in Bilbao.

This is a unique opportunity for someone looking to take on a leadership challenge — building and growing a design studio from the ground up, with the backing of an established international agency behind you :)
