We're working with a growing and highly dynamic business looking to bring in a driven Business Development Executive to join their commercial team.
This is a specialist role focused purely on generating high-quality opportunities — not closing deals. If you enjoy the front end of the sales process, thrive on outbound activity, and like seeing direct results from your efforts, this could be a really good fit.
The Role
This position sits at the heart of the sales function, responsible for building a strong pipeline of qualified prospects and booking appointments for senior team members.
You'll be identifying potential clients, engaging them through a mixture of cold outreach and targeted campaigns, and securing attendance for site visits and meetings.
It's a structured, high-activity role where consistency, organisation, and resilience are key.
What You'll Be Doing
Running targeted outbound campaigns (phone, email, LinkedIn)
Identifying and engaging with prospective B2B clients
Building and maintaining a strong pipeline of opportunities
Booking qualified meetings and site visits
Using CRM systems and sales tools to manage outreach and follow-ups
Researching and targeting high-potential businesses
Supporting overall pipeline growth and commercial performance What We're Looking For
1-3 years' experience in sales, business development, or lead generation
Confident communicator, comfortable with high-volume outreach
Proven ability to generate leads, meetings, or opportunities
Resilient, proactive, and self-motivated
Highly organised with strong attention to detail
Comfortable working in a target-driven environment
Strong commercial awareness and a results-focused mindset
Experience within B2B environments is important
