£35,000 Basic Salary, OTE Year 1: £55,000, OTE Year 2: £70k+ plus Outstanding Benefits
Flexible Hybrid working.
Join a well-established and highly respected software provider known for innovation and, crucially, for investing in their people. They are renowned for offering genuine progression both in terms of career and earning potential.
What Is Needed to Apply to the Role of Business Development Manager - Software
We seek a candidate whose attitude, drive, and proven sales capability stand out.
Importantly, this role does not require previous software or specific industry experience.
Instead, we need you to bring 2-5 years of demonstrable success in a target-driven B2B sales environment and possess the skills of a natural networker who genuinely enjoys building connections.
While we value a structured, methodical, and planned approach to winning new business - perhaps honed through formal sales training - your inherent qualities matter most.
We seek a true achiever with high energy, positivity, and a 'zest for life'.
Your positive attitude, career aspirations, and determination to succeed will be a significant focus during the interview process.
You should be a motivated self-starter, a confident communicator, and, ideally, someone ambitious who might be looking to step up from a BDR or SDR role to manage the full sales process.
About the Business Development Manager Role:
Based in Newcastle, this is a dynamic, full 360-degree sales opportunity where you will take complete ownership of the entire sales cycle.
Your primary mission is to drive new business growth for the software solutions.
This involves proactively identifying and sourcing fresh opportunities within target markets, leveraging your natural networking skills to make compelling introductions and build strong client relationships.
You will conduct engaging software demonstrations tailored to prospect needs, skillfully negotiate terms, and ultimately close new business deals.
A key part of your role will be building and managing a robust sales pipeline with a structured, methodical approach, supported by leads generated by the marketing team.
As a BDM, What You Will Get in Return
You will receive a competitive basic salary of £35,000 complemented by an exceptional and realistic On-Target Earnings structure: expect £55,000 in Year 1, rising to £70,000-£90,000 in Year 2, and £110,000-£130,000+ in Year 3.
Beyond the impressive earning potential, you'll join a company renowned for internal promotion, offering genuine career development opportunities.
You will receive comprehensive support, ongoing training, and strong leadership to ensure you have everything needed for success and job satisfaction.
Furthermore, the incredible benefits package includes Private Medical Insurance, an enhanced Pension Scheme, Life Assurance, a personal Learning & Development budget, access to free Counselling & Mental Health Support, a generous 27 days of annual leave plus bank holidays starting from day one, additional paid leave for charity work, and many other valuable perks.
