The posting

Janes equips defense, government, and industry leaders with objective, accurate, and shareable data and analysis. Our experts combine advanced technology with proven tradecraft to deliver validated and contextual intelligence to assess threats, accelerate decisions, and anticipate change with confidence. We deliver our intelligence with the flexibility to fuse it with multiple sources in any system, enrich AI solutions, or access it through our portal.

Job purpose:

This is an engaging and impactful role supporting the Southern Europe and Israel territory (SE&I) as a solution‑focused Business Development Manager, based in Italy. The position centres on working collaboratively with customers across Government - including Defence and the National Security community - as well as private defence industry and commercial organisations selling data-centric intelligence products and services to customers where tracking geopolitical and geoeconomic risk matters. With our help, customers can use their scarce resource more effectively, to get to better decisions with higher confidence, more quickly. We support decision advantage for our customers.

In this Individual Contributor role you will be part of a small, supportive team of Janes colleagues within SE&I, and will work closely with the wider European Team. Your focus will be to identify opportunities, build relationships, and develop meaningful business development plans that support sustainable revenue growth in line with personal and regional goals.

The Business Development Manager’s core purpose is to renew existing business in the SE&I territory and build a healthy sales pipeline that contributes to Janes’ continued growth within Defence and National Security environments.

How you will contribute at Janes:

  • Build trusted, long‑term relationships with key decision‑makers, influencers, and stakeholders across your accounts.
  • Engage confidently with senior stakeholders - internally and externally- to create positive, collaborative partnerships.
  • Understand individual customer needs and translate them into tailored solutions that reflect Janes’ Value Proposition.
  • Apply Janes’ Sales Methodology and processes to manage your pipeline, support accurate forecasting, and contribute to account growth.
  • Work closely with colleagues across Business Development, Customer Success, Product, Marketing, and Demand Generation to identify new opportunities, deliver effective lead‑generation plans and identify opportunities to grow accounts through upselling and cross‑selling.

The required skills and experience for this role are:

  • Experience in sales or business development, ideally within SE&I Government, Defence, or National Security organisations.
  • Strong knowledge or networks within Defence and National Security sectors.
  • Understanding of the SE&I geopolitical risk landscape and the role of open-source intelligence in meeting customer requirements.
  • Familiarity with the typical challenges faced by analysts in Defence and National Security environments.
  • Understanding of SE&I Defence budgeting and procurement processes.
  • Excellent communication and relationship‑building skills, with an organised, adaptable and positive approach.
  • Ability to understand and communicate Janes’ value proposition.
  • Fluent in both Italian and English, (Spanish advantageous).
  • Security Clearance a distinct advantage.

This is a remote role for candidates based in Rome or the surrounding area. The role involves regular travel to client sites (approximately 50% of the time), so a valid driving licence and regular access to a car are essential.

Benefits

  • 27 days of annual leave
  • Healthy half (0.5 day leave every 6 months for wellbeing)
  • Leave- study/ volunteer/ reserve forces
  • Pension scheme
  • Learning & Development opportunities (LinkedIn Learning, Mentoring, Internal courses etc.)

Salary range: €65,000–€80,000 gross per annum, plus commission and a comprehensive benefits package.

The final offer will be determined based on the successful candidate's skills, experience, market data and overall suitability for the role. Janes is committed to fair and transparent pay practices. Compensation decisions are based on objective criteria, including the requirements of the role, relevant experience, skills, market benchmarks and internal equity.

If this sounds like a role where you could make an impact, we’d love to hear from you. Even if you’re not sure you meet every requirement, your experience may be a great fit - we value capability, curiosity, and a willingness to learn.

*Please note that CVs must be submitted in English

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
