Business Development

Monumental is automating on-site construction with cutting-edge robotics and software. Its mission is to redefine construction through software and robots, with the aim of enabling beautiful, bespoke buildings to be built within a single day with minimal labor.

Monumental has proven its technology and operational model in the Netherlands and is ready to scale in the UK. The team includes about 100 members, mostly engineers and technicians, and this is an opportunity to join early in a high-growth, high-ambition startup environment, working with an experienced founding team.

About the role

Monumental is looking for an entrepreneurial operator to sit at the front line of its commercial engine.

Monumental is vertically integrated: it designs and builds its own hardware and software, manufactures the robots in-house, and deploys them on construction sites with its own team, operating as a subcontractor.

This role is not just about booking meetings or supporting sales. It is about helping build repeatable commercial momentum in a project-based industry that does not change easily.

Monumental builds cutting-edge technology, but sells the old-fashioned way: by showing up, walking the site, and earning trust in person. This is not a remote-first sales role; construction rewards presence, not polished slides.

You’ll work closely with Deployment leadership, Country Managers and founders to:

• identify the right customers
• open doors
• qualify real opportunities and scope the technical achievability
• move them forward toward live deployments

Monumental calls this role GTM because in construction, sales only works when go-to-market, operations, and delivery line up. You’ll spend time on calls, site visits, and internal coordination with forward deployed engineers. You’ll learn how construction projects are sold, how decisions are made, and how the technology fits into real-world projects.

What you’ll be working on

• Pipeline generation: identify, research, and approach the right general contractors, subcontractors, developers, and project stakeholders across the Netherlands and international markets.
• Outbound execution: craft and send targeted outreach (LinkedIn, email, calls) that is informed, relevant, and credible.
• Opportunity qualification: lead early calls and meetings, ask the right questions, and help determine whether a project is real, viable, and worth pursuing.
• CRM & deal hygiene: keep the pipeline clean, structured, and up to date. Track where deals are stuck, what is missing, and what needs follow-up.
• Generate proposals: own proposal preparation, scoping documents, and follow-ups together with Country Managers and Deployment leads.
• Market intelligence: build a strong understanding of how construction projects are tendered, how decisions are made, and what objections arise, and feed this back into the commercial strategy.
• On-site exposure: visit deployments or customer sites to understand the reality of what is being sold, and speak with credibility.

What we’re looking for

• 2–3 years of experience in a commercial, operational, or customer-facing role (growth, operations, construction, engineering, or similar)
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; you can be clear, direct, and professional without hiding behind jargon
• High energy and bias to action; you do not wait to be told what to do
• Comfortable with outbound work and rejection; you understand that momentum comes from volume and quality
• Structured and organised; you can keep track of many conversations, follow-ups, and next steps
• Curious and fast-learning; you want to understand construction, robotics, and how deals actually get done, and you’ll be fast in understanding the construction language
• Willing to get your hands dirty, literally and figuratively, and spend time close to operations when needed
• Comfortable switching between a muddy construction site and a boardroom conversation without changing who you are
• Able to sell into where Monumental is heading, pulling real projects forward when the opportunity is big enough by having a deep understanding of the technical product
• Fluent in Dutch and English

What this role is not

• A pure sales role with only a script and a quota
• A role with established processes to simply follow; you’ll spend more time figuring things out than following existing processes, and that is by design
• A role for people who want comfort, predictability, or long ramp-up times

This role is for someone who wants to learn fast, own outcomes, and help build something real.

Why Monumental

Joining Monumental means being at the forefront of a movement making significant strides in the construction industry. Here, your work has the potential to impact not just the company but the future of how we build.
