Business development coordinator

Business Development Coordinator
📍 Wirral
💰 Up to £35,000 + Quarterly Performance Bonus
🕒 Full-Time | Permanent
Want to learn every part of a successful sales function within a growing business?
This isn’t your typical outbound sales grind or high-volume call centre environment. This is a varied, commercially focused role where you’ll manage key client relationships, support a technical sales team, coordinate commercial activity and help create new business opportunities through multiple channels.
You’ll work closely with operational teams, estimators and senior business development professionals, giving you exposure to the full sales and client delivery lifecycle within a fast-moving service-led environment.
For the right individual, there is a genuine opportunity to progress into a Regional Business Development Manager position within approximately 18 months as the business continues to grow.
An established and rapidly growing service-led business is looking to appoint a proactive and commercially minded Business Development Coordinator to join its expanding team in Merseyside.
The Role
You’ll work closely with the Sales Manager, operational teams and Business Development Managers to ensure a smooth and professional client journey from enquiry through to project mobilisation.
This is not a purely administrative role. You’ll play an active part in supporting revenue growth, developing client relationships and identifying commercial opportunities across existing and prospective accounts.
