Business Development Executive

The Opportunity

We’re working with a leading, fast-growing provider of Managed Technology Services, specialising in IT, telecoms and print solutions, to find a motivated and ambitious Business Development Executive to join their expanding team. Through partnerships with globally recognised technology brands, they help organisations solve complex business challenges and improve efficiency.

This is much more than a telesales role. It’s a chance to become a key contributor to a growing business, develop valuable sales and leadership skills, and build a long-term career in the technology industry.

The Role

You’ll develop and qualify new business opportunities by engaging prospective customers through telephone outreach, market research, networking, social media and wider business development activity. Working from a central database, you’ll identify and contact target organisations, build relationships with decision makers, gather valuable business intelligence and pass qualified opportunities to the sales team. You’ll play a vital role in supporting the company’s growth strategy while establishing yourself as a trusted advisor to prospective clients.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Making proactive outbound calls to known targets to generate and qualify new opportunities
• Collecting key information on each prospect, including names, titles, addresses, phone numbers, email, opt-ins, related activity, budget and competitive information
• Building relationships with decision-makers and developing yourself as a trusted advisor
• Passing qualified leads and opportunities to the sales team to help generate new business
• Taking on strategic activities as required, such as attending trade exhibitions, networking events, foot-canvassing and social media activity

What We’re Looking For

• At least 2 years’ experience in B2B telesales, lead generation, appointment setting or business development
• Strong communication skills, with a professional and confident telephone manner
• Self-motivation and the resilience needed for outbound sales
• A highly motivated, ambitious and target-driven approach
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• The ability to build relationships and influence decision-makers
• A positive attitude and a willingness to learn and develop

Experience in IT, telecoms, managed services or print solutions would be an advantage, although training will be provided for the right candidate.

Career Growth

This is a small, ambitious team going through rapid expansion. Unlike a large corporate, you’ll have genuine visibility with senior leadership and the chance to influence how the business develops and scales. Your ideas will be heard and your contributions recognised. The company is committed to developing talent from within, with clear progression pathways as the business grows.

What’s on Offer

• Competitive basic salary
• Uncapped commission structure
• Excellent career progression opportunities
• Leadership development and mentoring
• Ongoing training and professional development
• A supportive and collaborative team environment
• The opportunity to work with leading technology vendors and solutions
• Recognition and rewards for high performance
• The chance to make a real impact in a growing business
