Business development manager

Headford Group Ltd
Business development manager
Posted: 21 February
Offer description

Our client are a fast-growing 3PL in the West Midlands who offer Fulfilment, Warehousing Freight forwarding solutions.

They are now looking for a Business Development Manager to take charge of the growth strategy and build the commercial engine that powers our next chapter.

The Role

This is more than a sales job — it's a chance to shape the sales function of a 3PL that's scaling fast. We're looking for someone who knows how to find and close opportunities, not just work from an inbound list. You'll be the face of the company to new brands, creating long-term partnerships while driving top-line revenue.

What You'll Do

* Own the full sales cycle: from prospecting and outreach to pitching, closing, and onboarding.
* Build a strong pipeline by leveraging outbound campaigns, events, partnerships, and smart marketing strategies.
* Lead the commercial function, reshaping how we approach sales, lead generation, and client acquisition.
* Work with exciting eCommerce brands.
* Collaborate with operations, client services, and IT to design solutions that are both profitable and deliverable.
* Represent industry events, exhibitions, and networking opportunities.
* Grow accounts by identifying opportunities for upselling value-added services (returns, branded packaging, etc.).

Experience needed

* 3–5 years' experience in sales and account management at a 3PL or fulfilment provider.
* A proven hunter — you know how to create opportunities, not just manage them.
* Experience designing or executing sales and marketing strategies.
* Strong track record of closing deals with SME and mid-market brands.
* Comfortable negotiating commercials and contracts with senior decision-makers.
* Commercially sharp, able to balance client requirements with operational realities.
* Ambitious, entrepreneurial, and ready to step up — this role has a clear path to Head of Sales as they scale.
