Location: Horsforth, Leeds (Hybrid)
Working Pattern: Full-time (part-time considered for the right candidate)
Bartlett Group is expanding into a new division focused on the Charity & Care sector, and we’re looking for a capable, articulate Business Development Executive to help us build strong, long-term relationships in this area.
This is a desk-based role at the centre of our new business activity. You’ll be part of an experienced and supportive team, working with people who take pride in doing things properly and value thoughtful, professional communication.
The Opportunity
You’ll be responsible for identifying and approaching prospective clients, starting meaningful conversations, and arranging introduction meetings with senior decision-makers across the charity and care sectors, working alongside a highly experienced leadership team with over 20 years’ expertise in this field.
The work is consultative rather than transactional. The sector values sincerity, warmth and consistency over pressure or persuasion, so success in this role comes from listening, understanding and building trust over time.
Your main responsibilities will include:
* Making outbound calls to prospective clients within the charity and care sectors
* Building rapport and securing quality introduction meetings for the business
* Researching each organisation to tailor your approach
* Maintaining accurate and timely information in our CRM system
* Supporting marketing campaigns and sector initiatives
Our Ideal Candidate:
We’re looking for someone confident, resilient and commercially aware, who communicates naturally and knows how to adapt their style to different audiences.
You’ll bring:
* Proven experience in telesales or outbound business development
* Strong communication and relationship-building skills
* The ability to engage senior decision-makers professionally
* A proactive and organised approach to managing your workload
* Experience with CRM systems and Microsoft Office tools
* A positive, team-focused attitude
Experience within financial services or the charity and care sector is preferred. What matters most is professionalism, credibility, and the ability to hold informed, confident conversations. We can provide the support needed to upskill in insurance-specific areas.
Rewards:
We offer very competitive salaries and a market leading benefits package.
* Competitive salary (based on experience)
* Generous holiday allowance starting at 25 days plus bank holidays, with the ability to purchase more days and volunteering days
* 7% employer pension contributions
* Private Medical Insurance
