Business Development Manager

Who We Are Telecom Infrastructure Partners (TIP) is a global investment firm helping property owners unlock long-term value from their telecom lease, with less hassle and more peace of mind. We work with landowners, businesses, and institutions that host mobile infrastructure like masts and rooftop antennas. We offer them an upfront lease premium and long-term professional management. It’s about reducing risk, unlocking value, and giving our clients clarity and control over their assets. We don’t build networks; we help people make the most of them. Through smart, transparent lease investments and practical advisory support, we turn complex telecom agreements into stable, strategic opportunities. TIP operates in 14 countries and is backed by leading institutional investors, DigitalBridge and Swiss Life Asset Managers, with over $1.5 billion committed to infrastructure. Our work sits at the intersection of finance, telecom, and real estate, and at the heart of it all is our commitment to long‑term partnerships built on trust, transparency, and value.
