What will your mission be? 🎯
We are looking for a driven, technically fluent Business Development Manager to grow Telefónica Global Solutions' footprint in Sponsored Roaming (Roaming Hub) and eSIM/CMP platform services, while also supporting the broader wholesale portfolio (IPX, signalling, IoT connectivity, and voice/data interconnect). This is a hybrid hunter/farmer role, weighted heavily toward new logo acquisition (80%), with a smaller account management component (20%) to nurture and expand existing relationships.
You will engage CSPs, MNOs, MVNOs, and MVNEs globally, positioning Telefónica's Roaming Hub and eSIM platform capabilities as the partner of choice for operators seeking sponsored roaming agreements, IMSI leasing arrangements, and remote SIM provisioning (RSP) solutions.
Key Responsibilities 💼
- New Business Development (Hunter – ~80%)
- Identify, prospect, and close new business opportunities for Roaming Hub / Sponsored Roaming services with MNOs, MVNOs, and MVNEs globally.
- Sell eSIM platform capabilities (GSMA-compliant remote SIM provisioning, CMP, subscription management) to CSPs, MNOs, and MVNOs looking to launch or scale eSIM offerings.
- Build and manage a robust sales pipeline across target markets, driving the full sales cycle from prospecting to contract signature.
- Promote Telefónica's broader wholesale portfolio where relevant: IPX, SS7/Diameter signalling, IMSI Leasing, IoT connectivity (LPWA, NB-IoT/CAT-M), and voice/data interconnect.
- Represent Telefónica at industry events, GSMA forums, and roaming/wholesale conferences to generate leads and build market visibility.
- Develop and execute go-to-market strategies for sponsored roaming and eSIM in coordination with product, marketing, and pricing teams.
- Negotiate commercial terms, pricing, and contracts (Roaming Hub agreements, eSIM/CMP service agreements, wholesale frameworks).
- Account Management (~20%)
- Manage and grow a portfolio of existing sponsored roaming and eSIM customers, ensuring retention and satisfaction.
- Act as a trusted advisor, identifying upsell/cross-sell opportunities across the wholesale portfolio (roaming, IPX, signalling, IoT).
- Coordinate with internal technical, provisioning, and support teams to ensure smooth onboarding and service delivery for new and existing accounts.
What skills are we looking for? 🔎
- 2+ Sales and/or business development experience in telecommunications, with a strong focus on wholesale, roaming, or carrier services.
- Solid understanding of roaming ecosystems, including:
- Sponsored Roaming / Roaming Hub models
- IMSI Leasing and eSIM / Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP) architectures
- CMP (Connectivity/Consent Management Platform) and eSIM subscription management
- Working knowledge of core wholesale/telecom technologies:
- IPX (IP Exchange)
- SS7 and Diameter signalling, SEPP (Security Edge Protection Proxy)
- 2G/3G/4G/5G roaming architecture and interconnect
- IoT connectivity (LPWA, NB-IoT, CAT-M) and IoT CMPs
- Experience selling to CSPs, MNOs, MVNOs, and MVNEs in an international, multi-market context.
- Strong commercial acumen: pipeline management, forecasting, contract negotiation, and pricing structuring.
- Excellent relationship-building and consultative selling skills, with the ability to engage both technical and C-level stakeholders.
- Fluent English required; additional languages (Spanish, Portuguese, French, or others) are a plus.
- Willingness to travel internationally for client meetings and industry events.
