Business Development Associate
Calqulate Metrics Ltd, Los Angeles, CA, United States
Business Development Associate | Luxury Travel
Contractor | Remote
We are recruiting a Business Development Associate on behalf of a high-profile, boutique luxury travel company based in Los Angeles. Built on an exceptional reputation and an elite client roster, this company has grown almost entirely through word of mouth — and now they are ready to grow intentionally. This is a rare opportunity to sell something people genuinely love buying.
The Opportunity You will identify and win new business within the mid-market entertainment sector — think production companies, talent agencies, management firms, and entertainment-adjacent businesses in the 25-100 employee range. Once you close, the internal team takes over all account management. Your job is to open doors and bring clients in.
What You'll Do
Prospect and generate your own leads within the entertainment industry
Build relationships with decision-makers at mid-size entertainment companies booking corporate and talent travel
Pitch and close new accounts for luxury travel services
Collaborate with the internal team on handoff once business is won
What You Bring
A natural networker with an existing footprint in entertainment, media, or adjacent industries
Proven track record of hunting and closing new business — not just managing existing accounts
Self-directed and comfortable working independently without a structured pipeline handed to you
Polished, credible, and at ease in high-end client environments
Understanding of the luxury market and the expectations that come with it
Preferred Qualifications
Background in luxury travel, hospitality, or entertainment services
Existing relationships with mid-size entertainment companies or talent-adjacent businesses
Experience as an independent sales contractor or consultant
Compensation Uncapped commission | Compensation structure discussed with qualified candidates
