Hi 👋
We’re working with a well-established, fast-growing international business. With a strong track record of sustained organic growth, the business is now entering an exciting phase of development and is looking to bring on a Junior Business Development Executive to support continued expansion.
This is a great opportunity for someone early in their sales or commercial career who is motivated, resilient, and keen to learn in a fast-paced, international environment.
💥 As a Junior Business Development Executive, you will:
* Identify and research new commercial opportunities and prospective clients
* Support early-stage deal activity, including initial outreach and discussions with external stakeholders
* Assist with the monitoring of working capital across live business activity (stock, debtors, cash, accruals)
* Track the progress of ongoing business in collaboration with logistics and operations teams
* Work closely with senior business managers to share insights, learning opportunities, and areas for improvement
* Contribute to market research and analysis to inform business development strategy
💥 What we’re looking for:
* A strong work ethic and resilience in a target-driven environment
* Confident communication skills, both over the phone and face-to-face
* Willingness to engage in outreach activity (cold calling experience desirable but not essential)
* A personable, driven, and ambitious approach
* Ability to learn quickly and adapt in a dynamic commercial setting
* Strong relationship-building skills with internal and external stakeholders
* Interest in international trade, sales, or commercial operations
