Business Development Manager

Elephant Media Pte Ltd | Singapore | Full-Time

About Elephant Media

At Elephant Media, we craft powerful stories through film and video. Whether it’s branded content, short-form social media campaigns, or full-scale documentaries, we bring ideas to life with authenticity, heart, and cinematic quality. We work with brands, agencies, and individuals who want more than just content — they want impact.

What This Role is About

We’re looking for a Business Development Manager who’s equal parts go-getter, strategic thinker, and creative collaborator.

This is not a sit-behind-the-desk role. You’ll actively seek out new business opportunities, pitch creative ideas, build client relationships, and play a key role in turning campaign dreams into real-world productions.

If you thrive on momentum, believe in starting conversations that matter, and love being part of a high-functioning creative team — this role is for you.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Prospect and initiate contact with potential clients (email, LinkedIn, cold calls, referrals)

• Actively seek and follow up on new business leads, briefings, and pitch opportunities

• Prepare proposals, quotations, and custom pitch decks tailored to client needs

• Support client meetings, calls, and production visits with confidence and professionalism

• Maintain and update client CRM records, track communications, and keep tabs on lead pipelines

• Assist in managing Elephant Media’s social media presence and marketing touchpoints

• Assist in on-site video shoots (camera ops, lighting setup, BTS content)

• Edit short-form videos for marketing, proposals, or internal use (using Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, etc.)

• Organize and back up shoot footage efficiently

• Create simple graphics/titles and help prepare visual assets for client-facing use

You Should Be Someone Who

• Has 1–3 years of experience in media, production, advertising, or a related creative field

• Is confident and proactive — you’re not afraid to reach out first, follow up fast, or pitch bold ideas

• Handles rejection maturely and views “no” as a chance to learn and bounce back stronger

• Communicates well in both English and Chinese (spoken and written)

• Thrives in collaborative environments and takes initiative to move projects forward

• Presents yourself professionally and confidently — in both client meetings and on production sites

• Knows how to manage time, track tasks, and keep documentation tidy and clear

• Has hands-on experience operating mirrorless or DSLR cameras and assisting on set

• Can edit short videos with finesse and a strong sense of storytelling

Bonus Skills (Not Required but Nice to Have)

• Graphic design (Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop)

• Motion graphics or simple animation skills (After Effects, Canva, etc.)

Why This Role Matters

Every great project starts with a spark — a message, a pitch, a bold conversation. You’ll be the one creating that spark, keeping the energy alive, and seeing it through all the way to the wrap party. You’re not just selling services — you’re bringing stories to life.
