About Circle27
Circle27 is a founder-led company building thoughtful corporate experiences across events, exhibition booths, and curated gifting. We work closely with clients to turn important business moments into experiences that feel sharp, well-run, and memorable.

About the role
We are looking for someone who can help us build and grow client relationships, convert opportunities into business, and ensure active projects are serviced with clarity and confidence.
This is not a pure sales role and it is not a back-end coordination role. We want someone who can sit at the intersection of business development, client servicing, creative thinking, and execution discipline. We are in the process of building a team and you will be growing as the company grows.
You should enjoy talking to clients, understanding what they really need, shaping a good brief, building trust, and helping take work from first conversation to final delivery.
What you will do
- Build and manage a pipeline of prospective clients across corporate events, exhibition booths, and curated gifting
- Reach out to decision-makers across marketing, brand, HR, admin, founders’ offices, and business teams
- Understand briefs clearly and ask the right questions before solutions are built
- Work with founders and internal teams to shape proposals, presentations, and concept notes
- Drive follow-ups, negotiations, and closures in a structured way
- Own day-to-day client communication on live projects
- Translate client expectations into clear internal briefs for creative, design, and operations teams
- Track timelines, approvals, budgets, and deliverables across projects
- Help create repeat business and identify opportunities to grow existing accounts
- Represent Circle27 with professionalism, warmth, responsiveness, and taste
What we are looking for
- 4 or more years of experience in business development, account management, client servicing, partnerships, or brand-facing roles
- Strong communication and presentation skills
- Someone who is commercially aware but also creatively sharp
- A person who can build relationships, not just chase leads
- Strong follow-through and comfort handling multiple moving pieces
- Good instincts on client expectations, brand tone, and premium service
- Comfort working in an early-stage, founder-led setup where roles are broad and ownership matters
- Bengaluru-based preferred
Backgrounds that could fit well
Candidates from event agencies, experiential marketing, advertising, PR, luxury, hospitality, brand partnerships, B2B services, or marketing-led client-facing roles can apply.
You do not have to come only from the events industry but will be preferred. What matters more is that you know how to build trust, handle clients well, and convert opportunities into business.
Why this role is interesting
- You will be part of the early team, not one layer in a large machine
- You will work directly with the founders
- You will get exposure across business development, client strategy, project shaping, and client servicing
- You will have room to grow with the company as Circle27 scales
- Performance-linked incentives are part of the structure
