More about the role

We’re looking for a Key Account/Business Development Manager to join our Indoor End User team in Sweden.

As a Key Account/Business Development Manager you will be responsible for growing partnerships with large office developers and ecosystem partners in the Stockholm region. You will drive complex projects, build long-term relationships, and position Signify as the preferred partner for Smart buildings with sustainable and connected lighting solutions.

What you’ll do
  • Build and grow senior-level relationships with end users, specifiers, and consultants, with a strong focus on large developers and complex projects in the Stockholm region.

  • Drive specification and early project influence by positioning Signify’s differentiated value propositions (Connectivity, Sustainability and Wellbeing) with end users and consultants

Your qualifications
  • Minimum 5+ years of senior, consultative sales or business development experience, ideally in complex, project-driven or solution-based environments

  • Proven ability to build and leverage a strong professional network, particularly with end users, consultants, developers, or similar senior stakeholders

  • Demonstrated experience working with long sales cycles, where success depends on strategic influencing, specification work, and patience rather than quick transactional deals

  • Strong stakeholder management skills, with the credibility to engage senior decision-makers internally and externally and to navigate complex ecosystems

  • Business mindset with resilience and maturity, understanding that results take time and that building something sustainable is more important than short-term targets

  • Bachelor's or master's degree

  • Native Swedish speaker and fluent in English
