Job Title: Business Development Manager
Location: Leeds
Job Type: Full-Time
Salary: £35,000 PA
We are looking for an outgoing, people-loving, creative individual to join our team as Business Development Manager in Leeds, overseeing three venues: Revolución de Cuba, Revolution Electric Press and Revolution Call Lane.
If you're the kind of person who walks into a room and builds instant rapport, loves bringing people together, and thrives on turning ideas into successful, well-attended events, this could be the ideal next step in your career.
Whether you’re a Brand Ambassador, Events Manager, Sales Manager, Account Manager or experienced in Business Development, if you’re naturally relationship-driven and know how to generate excitement and business through human connection, we want to hear from you.
Position Overview:
As Business Development Manager, your focus will be driving revenue and footfall across our three Leeds venues by turning relationships and opportunities into real results. You’ll play a key role in converting private hire enquiries into confirmed bookings, while actively generating new leads through networking, outreach and relationship building.
You’ll work closely with each venue's General Manager to develop creative event concepts that give guests compelling reasons to visit, helping to drive footfall and boost sales. You’ll also research and build partnerships with external promoters, brands and businesses to host third-party events that bring in new audiences and further drive trade.
Ideal candidate: Someone who has the confidence and passion for building relationships whilst being sales driven. Hospitality or retail experience would be an advantage but is not essential.
*We would welcome applications if you have experience as a Business Development Manager/Brand Ambassador/Brand Manager/Sales Manager/Events Manager/Account Manager*
Key Responsibilities:
Inbound & Enquiry Management:
* Handle enquiries for the hub that are +35 people which will be passed over from the central reservations team
* Carry out show-rounds and client meetings when required
* Use effective sales techniques to maximise conversion
* Deal with enquiries to a brand standard and support the central reservations team where needed
Outbound:
* Consistently be out & visible in the hub locations promoting the business(es) through effective activity
* Attend networking events regularly across the locations
* Plan and execute targeted and specific outbound plans to generate revenue across the year and especially across the festive period
* Execute brand outbound activity as directed by the Bars BDM
Events & Strategy:
* Work alongside the Managers to plan quarterly strategies (regarding local activity that sits alongside the ‘always on’ business approach)
* Develop concepts for events within the locations that provide a revenue opportunity
* Effectively work with the Social Media & Events Executive to market said events to maximise success
* Consistently explore project event space opportunities that will be beneficial for the business(es) and manage relationships with event suppliers
People & Organisation:
* Work collaboratively with the Social Media & Events Executive to ensure strategies are implemented effectively and remain on-brand
* Work collaboratively and closely with the Central Support Team to ensure all guests receive an incredible experience when booking
* Work closely with venue teams to ensure planned activity is executed well and the wider team is bought into sales activity
* Understand the operation(s) of venues within the hub in order to effectively book in large-scale events
Days & Hours Pattern: You are expected to work a 5 day working week (Monday to Friday). The nature of the business means that there may be occasions where you are expected to work evenings and weekends. This will depend upon the demand on the role and the calendar events that are occurring. The role will include travel across 3 (but not limited to) of our fantastic venues - Revolution Nottingham Cornerhouse, Revolucion de Cuba Nottingham and Revolucion de Cuba Derby. Home-working will likely form a limited part of the working week.
