Business Development Lead at dss+

Are you ready to help us shape the future of operational resilience and sustainability? At dss+, we are far more than a typical consulting firm. We act as implementers and change makers, working directly with organizations to navigate complex challenges in safety, risk, and energy transitions. By translating intricate sustainability goals into actionable roadmaps, we help our clients achieve tangible, lasting results. We operate across a diverse range of sectors, including chemicals, mining, utilities, and private equity, and we are currently looking for a strategic leader to help us expand our footprint in China.

What you bring

As our Business Development Lead, you will play a critical role in driving our growth strategy within China. This full-time, on-site position requires a seasoned professional who can bridge the gap between creative storytelling and measurable business outcomes. You will report to the Managing Director and collaborate closely with our senior leadership team to execute high-impact initiatives. Your core responsibilities will include:

• Designing and executing comprehensive go-to-market strategies tailored to the unique requirements of the Chinese market.
• Leading content marketing efforts that strengthen our brand presence and foster deeper engagement with both prospective and existing clients.
• Managing end-to-end demand generation programs, utilizing a mix of digital, social, and targeted outreach tactics to drive qualified leads and measurable pipeline growth.

Requirements

We are looking for a candidate who possesses a deep understanding of the B2B landscape in China. You should have at least 15 years of experience in strategic marketing or business development, ideally within professional services, consulting, or complex solution-selling environments. Experience working within the steel or chemical industries is considered a significant advantage. You must be digitally savvy and comfortable using modern tools to execute outbound and social marketing campaigns. Because you will be working with diverse stakeholders, you need to be a strong communicator who is fluent in both English and Mandarin. We value individuals who can balance high-level strategic planning with the tactical execution required to turn market insights into real-world impact.

What we offer

We provide a dynamic and collaborative environment where your contributions directly influence our growth trajectory. You will have the opportunity to work with a global team of experts while leading initiatives that have a meaningful impact on industry standards for safety and sustainability.
