Marketing & Sales Executive

Who we are

LOOM Brand Designs has been building brands since 2018 — for entrepreneurs, startups and small businesses across the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe. Logos, identities, websites, packaging, the marketing that carries them.

We have always been based in the south of Sri Lanka. We are now bringing that same work home.

There is a gap here worth closing. Sri Lankan businesses — good ones, well run, with real customers — are competing with branding that does not match what they have built. The standard we apply for a client in London is not a standard reserved for London. We want to bring branding, marketing and business development expertise into the Sri Lankan business landscape, and we are starting where we come from.

We are hiring two people to help us do it.

The role

This is a field role. Most days you will be out meeting owners in person, across Galle and the surrounding district: a boutique inside the Fort, a villa in Unawatuna, a restaurant that has been busy for fifteen years on a logo someone drew in 2009, someone about to start a venture and unsure how to look credible from day one.

You listen, you work out what would actually change things for that business, and you bring the work back to us.

Who we are looking to help:

• Small businesses that have outgrown how they present themselves
• People starting a venture who want to begin properly
• Villas, guesthouses and hotels competing for international attention
• Restaurants and cafés
• Established local businesses ready to modernise

What you will do

• Visit local businesses, shops, villas and hotels across Galle and the district
• Build real relationships with owners and decision-makers, in Sinhala and in English
• Understand a business well enough to explain what branding would change for it — not recite a service list
• Prepare proposals and quotes using our templates and internal tools
• Follow up properly. Most of this work is won on the third conversation, not the first
• Keep an honest pipeline, so we can plan around what is real

You will not be doing this alone

This matters, so we will be specific about it.

You have a team behind you. Our designers, strategists and production staff do the work you bring in — you are not expected to deliver it yourself, and you are not expected to know how.

We have also built our own internal tools for exactly this job: research a business before you walk in, put a proposal together in minutes rather than an afternoon, generate visuals a client can react to while you are still sitting with them. We train you on all of it. The point is that you spend your time in conversations rather than paperwork.

What we are looking for

• Two to three years in sales, ideally field or business-to-business
• Genuinely comfortable walking into a business nobody introduced you to
• Fluent in Sinhala and English, spoken and written — you will move between both in the same meeting
• Confident with AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini, and with Google Workspace. You do not need to be an expert. You need to be someone who picks up a new tool quickly and actually uses it
• Based in Galle or close enough to travel around the district daily
• Able and willing to travel to client premises

What we will teach you

You do not need a branding background. We train you on:

• How branding works, and why a business pays for it
• Our services, our pricing, and how to position both
• Our internal tools, and using AI for image and video generation, proposals and client research
• Marketing and business development fundamentals you can use for the rest of your career

If you are good with people and quick to learn, we can teach you the rest.

Pay

A fixed monthly salary plus performance incentives and commission. Total monthly earnings run from LKR 50,000 to LKR 300,000 depending on what you bring in, and the fixed component is negotiable based on your experience.

We would rather be straight with you about this. LKR 50,000 is the floor while you are finding your feet. LKR 300,000 is not a headline number — it is what someone good at this earns once their pipeline is working.

How hiring works

Three stages, over about four weeks:

1. A short call, so we can get to know each other
2. An interview in Galle
3. A practical exercise — we will ask you to approach a real business and tell us honestly how it went

We hire on ability and attitude. Everyone is welcome to apply, whatever your background.
