About Us:
At Altum HR, we’re not your average HR consultancy. We’re a team of legally qualified, CIPD-trained experts who deliver tailored HR, Employment Law, Recruitment, and Payroll solutions that genuinely transform our clients’ businesses.
We’re growing fast and we’re looking for a driven, ambitious Business Development Manager to join our team and take Altum HR to the next level in the Northwest. This is your chance to be more than a cog in a corporate machine — you’ll have real autonomy, direct access to leadership, and the opportunity to make a visible impact in a company that’s already making waves nationally and internationally.
The Role:
As our new Business Development Manager, you’ll be the driving force behind our growth. Your mission:
* Build strong, lasting relationships with business owners, leaders, and professional partners across the Northwest.
* Promote and expand Altum HR’s Partnership Network by connecting with accountants, solicitors, and business groups who can introduce us to their clients.
* Represent Altum HR at networking events, conferences, and client meetings — you’ll be the face of our brand.
* Manage the full sales cycle: from sourcing leads and booking meetings, to delivering consultative sales conversations and closing deals.
* Understand client challenges and present tailored solutions across our market-leading HR, Recruitment, and Payroll services .
* Smash targets, exceed expectations, and enjoy uncapped rewards for your hard work.
This is a field-based, people-first sales role with plenty of autonomy, variety, and opportunity to grow.
What We’re Looking For:
We don’t just want a “salesperson.” We want someone who:
* Is a self-starter — motivated, ambitious, and hungry to succeed.
* Thrives in a target-driven environment, with a track record in B2B sales (HR, recruitment, payroll, or professional services experience is a plus, but not essential).
* Can build instant rapport and inspire confidence with business leaders and decision-makers.
* Is resilient, tenacious, and doesn’t take “no” as the final answer.
* Has excellent communication, presentation, and organizational skills.
* Holds a full UK driving licence and is happy to travel across the Northwest.
Whether you’re a seasoned BDM or an up-and-coming sales star ready to take the next step, if you’ve got the drive and determination to deliver results, we want to hear from you.
What’s In It For You?
We believe in rewarding performance and looking after our people. Here’s what you’ll get:
* 💰 Competitive Basic Salary (£30k–£35k) + Uncapped Commission (OTE £80k+)
* 🚗 Free On-Site Parking at our Altrincham HQ
* 🏋️ On-Site Gym & Café – wellness and great coffee at your fingertips
* 🩺 Private Healthcare (including dental & optical cover)
* 🛡️ Death in Service Insurance for peace of mind
* 🎉 Regular Staff Socials & Team Events – we work hard and celebrate harder
* 📈 Clear Career Progression – grow with us into Senior BDM or Sales Manager roles
* 🌍 International Reach – be part of a business that supports clients nationally and globally
