Over de functie
Within our Development team, we are focused on expanding and strengthening our portfolio of parks across Europe, with a strong growth ambition in the UK. The business development role is obviously a key role in realizing that ambition: identifying new opportunities, building relationships, and securing long-term partnerships that drive both continuity and profitability.
As a Business Development Manager, you operate at the heart of our growth strategy. You combine business development with relationship management, working across the full lifecycle from building a strong pipeline of prospects to negotiating and closing complex deals. You will be part of a young, ambitious, and close team with a strong sense of ownership, working in an environment that combines a startup mentality with the backing of a large international organization.

In this role, you take ownership of developing and expanding our franchise portfolio. You are equally focused on generating new opportunities as you are on maintaining and growing existing partnerships.

- Working towards a structured and focused set of deliverables and KPIs, lead the full deal lifecycle from initial contact and feasibility analysis through to negotiation, contract signing, and onboarding.
- Negotiate complex franchise and management contracts, including renewals and extensions.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with developers, park owners, and other key stakeholders, both internally and externally.
- Support third-party developers and collaborate with development partners to realize new park opportunities.
- Evaluation of current or potential resort real estate value based on capital structure, location, design & layout, facilities, accommodation and commercial agreement structures to maximise real estate owner returns and Landal franchise income.
- Contribute to the continuous optimization of business models and contract structures, ensuring scalability and compliance.
