Business Development Manager — International Real Estate & Partnerships
About Us
We are building a premium advisory business in the global living, second-home, and international real estate decision space.
Our work helps Indian families, HNIs, and globally minded clients evaluate where to live, where to invest, and which property opportunities deserve deeper review. We use a structured Macro → Meso → Micro research and decision framework instead of simply pushing inventory.
This is an early-stage, founder-led business. The role is ideal for someone who understands real estate relationships, can communicate professionally with developers and brokers, and can also maintain strong documentation discipline.
This is not a conventional property sales role. The goal is not to push one project. The goal is to build a high-quality international partner and property intelligence network.
