We're looking for a Business Development Manager to grow our Microsoft Advertising business with advertisers and agencies across Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), with a focus on Cyprus-based clients. Many of your clients will be Russian-speaking. Most business communication is in English, with advertisers, with colleagues around the world and with the platforms.

You won't work alone. The Client Solutions team and the Performance team support you, and together you work toward the best results for each client. You bring in the right advertisers; together, you make them successful.

  • Collect product feedback from advertisers and agencies
  • Negotiate agency deals and guide clients through contracts and account setup
  • Research the market, follow competitors, and represent Aleph at industry events
  • Forecast pipeline and revenue weekly, monthly and yearly, and keep the CRM up to date

What you need for this role

  • Proven experience in B2B sales or business development, ideally in digital advertising, ad tech or an agency. We care about your experience, not your degree.
  • A good grasp of digital performance metrics. Search advertising experience is a strong plus.
  • Knowledge of the Cyprus business community, or of CEE markets, is a strong advantage
  • Confidence with complex relationships between clients and agencies
  • Strong organization and the ability to handle several priorities at once
  • Practical use of AI tools (for example Copilot, ChatGPT or Claude) to research prospects, prepare proposals and work faster
  • Excellent Russian and English, spoken and written
  • Readiness to work on-site in Limassol. Candidates willing to relocate are very welcome.

What will make us really love you

  • You're excited about digital marketing and sales, and it shows
  • You take ownership, solve problems creatively, and never settle for "good enough"
  • You combine drive to close deals with real relationship-building. Clients and colleagues enjoy working with you.
  • You adapt quickly and do well in a fast-moving environment

What you'll love about us

  • Grow your career fast. You'll join a global company and work directly with one of the world's largest advertising platforms.
  • Learn constantly. Our training includes Aleph's own programs and training specific to each platform, so your skills grow a lot.
  • Be part of a real team. You'll have Client Solutions and Performance specialists behind every deal.
  • Private health insurance
  • Visa support if you relocate
  • A great place to work. Our office is in Limassol's Old Town, a short walk from the sea.
  • An international team that celebrates creativity, ambition and results
