About the Role
We’re looking for a Business Development Manager to lead growth across residential projects in the North East of England. You’ll be the face of the business for developers, housebuilders, consultants and contractors—identifying opportunities, nurturing partnerships and securing new connections and projects.
You’ll be joining a fast‑growing, forward‑thinking utilities provider with a strong reputation for quality, agility and customer service. While the company name stays behind the scenes for now, what you can expect is a supportive culture, ambitious growth plans and the freedom to shape your own success.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Developing and managing relationships with residential developers, housebuilders and key regional stakeholders
- Identifying new business opportunities across the North East and converting them into long‑term partnerships
- Leading the full sales cycle—from initial engagement and tendering through to contract negotiation and handover
- Working closely with internal technical and delivery teams to ensure proposals are accurate, competitive and aligned with customer needs
- Representing the business at industry events, meetings and networking opportunities
- Tracking market trends, competitor activity and regional development pipelines
What You’ll Bring
- Proven experience in business development, sales or account management within utilities, construction, energy, connections or related sectors
- Strong understanding of residential development and the regional market landscape
- Excellent communication and relationship‑building skills
- A proactive, self‑driven approach with the ability to work autonomously
- Confidence managing multiple opportunities and delivering against targets
- A commercial mindset and the ability to negotiate effectively
Why This Role Stands Out
- Up to £70k salary plus bonus
- A growing organisation where your impact is visible and valued
- Autonomy to shape your region and build your own network
- Supportive leadership and a collaborative culture
- Opportunities for long‑term progression as the business expands
If you’re motivated by building relationships, winning work and helping shape the future of residential development, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today and take the next step in your career.
