Business Development Manager – Data Strategy Consultancy London (Hybrid) | Up to £90,000
Most BD roles ask you to sell. This one asks you to build.
Our client is a 40-person award-winning data strategy consultancy pioneering the field of Data Economics — helping boards and investors put a financial value on their data. They work with some of the UK's most complex organisations across Infrastructure, Government, Energy, and Financial Services.
They need someone to build and run their commercial engine from the inside. You'll sit directly alongside the CEO and CGO — no layers, no quota, no commission structure. Just the strategy and discipline to help a differentiated firm grow.
The brief
* Own the outbound BD activity across priority sectors
* Run the events and thought leadership calendar end-to-end
* Qualify and develop opportunities alongside senior leadership
* Keep the pipeline tight — CRM, reporting, proposition development
Who will land this
You've come through a management consulting environment — Big 4, or a firm like Baringa or PA Consulting — and you're ready to move to the commercial side. You understand how consultancies win work and how senior buyers in complex organisations make decisions.
You'll bring at least 4 years in BD or commercial development, strong written communication, and the gravitas to hold your own at C-suite level.
Why it's worth a conversation
* Direct access to CEO and CGO from day one
* Clear path to Senior Manager and Director
