Knock Knock
At Knock Knock, we believe great stories cut through the noise. For over 15 years, we’ve helped global brands like Ralph Lauren, Three Mobile, Madewell, Lululemon, and Soho Home bring their stories to life - through commercials, brand films, social content, influencer campaigns and beyond.
We’re not in the business of just making more “stuff.” We’re here to create content that matters - to clients, to audiences, and to culture.
Based in London, we’re a close-knit team of creatives, strategists and producers. Now, we’re looking for a Business Development Manager to help write our next chapter.
The Role
This is a key, mid-level hire at Knock Knock - someone who will take the lead in building new relationships and unlocking new opportunities.
You’ll work closely with our MD and creative leadership, driving growth across agencies and brands. From prospecting and pitching to closing deals, you’ll play a vital role in expanding our client base and evolving how Knock Knock shows up in the world.
This is a rare opportunity to make a real impact at a growing agency with global ambition and serious creative credibility!
What You’ll Do
* Develop and deliver a smart, focused growth strategy aligned with our creative ambitions
* Identify and connect with potential clients (both brands and agencies) who vibe with our ethos
* Own the outreach – from cold emails to creds meetings and pitch follow-ups
* Tailor proposals, reels and decks to maximise impact and win work
* Spot and grow opportunities within our existing client relationships
* Stay plugged into industry trends, creative shifts and emerging players
* Represent Knock Knock at key events, with presence and personality
* Track progress through our CRM (Productive), and help refine the way we work as we grow
What Success Looks Like
This role is about quality growth - creatively, commercially and sustainably.
You’ll be helping us:
* Diversify revenue and client base
* Hit revenue targets while protecting creative integrity
* Win work we’re proud of - that leads to awards, impact and excitement
* Keep a healthy, growing pipeline across brands, agencies and sectors
Who You Are
* A natural connector and strategic thinker with 3+ years in biz dev, sales or partnerships within creative, media or production
* Skilled at building genuine relationships and sparking smart conversations
* Confident presenting and pitching to senior stakeholders with clarity and charisma
* Passionate about great storytelling, and what it takes to bring it to life
* Self-starter with a curious mind, commercial drive and collaborative spirit
Why Join Us?
* A real opportunity to shape the future of a respected, independent studio
* Creative autonomy, support, and space to make the role your own
* Progression potential into Head of Growth or Commercial Director
* Flexible working setup (London hybrid)
* Supportive team culture grounded in creativity and trust
* Competitive salary + performance bonus/commission
