Working as a business developer in France
The English title is widely used on French job boards: search for business developer, business developer junior, SDR or BDR, account executive, and in more traditional companies chargé de développement commercial or chargé d'affaires. The job is not regulated. Most hires come from business schools, master's programmes in sales or marketing, or engineering schools for technical products, but start-ups also recruit motivated profiles from other fields. Paris, Lyon, Lille and Nantes concentrate many tech employers. Roles selling to French companies require fluent French; international teams hire native speakers to cover other European markets from France. Packages usually combine a fixed salary and a variable part.
