About Hubexo
We provide cutting-edge data, insights, and software solutions to the global construction industry. We specialise in project information, eTendering, product information, market intelligence, and specification. We help the world build better by delivering unrivalled insights and technology that shape places where people live, work and play.
The Role
We’re hiring a Business Development Manager to grow our NBS Source platform—helping manufacturers improve visibility, drive demand, and get their products specified on construction projects across the UK.
This isn’t a SaaS licence sale. It’s a consultative, insight-led partnership where you’ll be selling product visibility, market access, and specifier engagement to forward-thinking manufacturers. These are long-term commercial conversations rooted in value, not volume.
If you understand how the right product, in the right format, at the right time, influences the design process we want to hear from you.
This is what you’ll be doing
Generate and close new business across the UK manufacturing sector, focusing on mid-to-enterprise accounts
Educate clients on how structured product data drives specification and future pipeline
Sell consultatively — shaping solutions based on technical need, visibility gaps, and commercial objectives
Engage sales, marketing, and product decision-makers within target manufacturers
Collaborate across Hubexo to tailor demos, messaging, and value propositions that resonate
Build pipeline momentum in Salesforce and manage deals with clarity and control
Represent NBS and Hubexo at industry events, webinars, and forums to build profile and trust
About You
You’re commercially sharp, customer-focused, and ready to lead conversations that shape how manufacturers win work.
You’ve sold digital advertising, product listings, or insight-led platforms to commercial B2B clients — ideally helping them boost visibility, reach decision-makers, and drive demand. Experience with manufacturers or product-led sectors is a bonus, not a must.
You’re confident working with senior stakeholders across sales, marketing, and product teams
You’re curious and credible — you ask smart questions and back them with insight
You’re organised and self-directed — you take ownership of outcomes, not just activity
You’re CRM confident — Salesforce experience is a bonus, but not a blocker
Why Hubexo
We’re not here to coast — we’re here to challenge, grow, and build better. For our people and for our customers. That means we’ll expect a lot from you: ownership, precision, and a drive to lead by example. In return, you’ll get the space to dream big, take smart risks, and be seen, heard, and valued.
At Hubexo, you’ll:
Dream Big – Work with ambitious teams building global solutions that transform how the industry connects
Thrive Together – Collaborate across Sales, Marketing, and Product to deliver impact no one achieves alone
Own It – Take responsibility for your pipeline, your results, and your professional growth
Do the Right Thing – Sell with integrity, putting long-term partnerships before short-term wins
These values aren’t just words — they shape how we work, sell, and grow every day.
