🏢 About Buildscout
Buildscout transforms planning application data into actionable business opportunities for property and construction professionals. Backed by Searchland - the UK's leading B2B PropTech company - we're at an exciting stage of growth, combining data, technology, and insight to help professionals move faster and smarter.
We're now looking for an experienced Senior Business Development Manager to take a leading role in shaping and scaling our B2B SaaS sales strategy. This is a unique opportunity for someone ready to take the next step - driving significant ARR growth in a fast-paced, ambitious environment where your contribution is visible and rewarded.
👩💻 About the Role
As Senior Business Development Manager, you will be responsible for driving revenue growth through proactive lead generation, client relationship management, and strategic sales execution. You’ll be a key figure in shaping Buildscout’s go-to-market approach and establishing scalable processes that set the foundation for long-term success.
You’ll work closely with leadership to refine our commercial strategy, represent Buildscout at industry events, and help position us as a leading name in proptech innovation.
📌 What You’ll Do
*
Own the full B2B sales cycle - from cold outreach and qualification through to negotiation and close on complex, multi-stakeholder deals.
*
Build Sales pipeline - generate high-quality opportunities via strategic outbound (calls, email, LinkedIn) and industry networking.
*
Deliver compelling SaaS product demos - run consultative, value-led demonstrations of our platform (virtual and in-person) that speak to business outcomes, not just features.
*
Engage and influence C-suite and senior decision-makers within enterprise and mid-market property and construction businesses.
*
Manage your pipeline with precision - keep HubSpot meticulously updated; use data to forecast accurately and prioritise the deals that move the needle on ARR.
*
Be the voice of the market - feed structured client insight to Product and Marketing, helping shape positioning, messaging, and the product roadmap.
*
Represent Buildscout in the industry - attend trade shows, PropTech events, and networking meetups to build brand presence and surface new opportunities.
*
Help raise the bar - contribute to refining our sales playbook and support junior team members as we scale.
🎯 What We’re Looking For
*
At least 3 years in B2B SaaS sales with a proven, consistent track record of hitting or exceeding revenue targets
* A natural outbound mindset - you generate your own opportunities and you're disciplined about it
* Skilled at running live SaaS product demonstrations, both virtual and in-person, tailored to the customer
* Excellent communication, presentation, and negotiation skills across multiple stakeholder levels
* Comfortable working autonomously in a fast-paced, start-up environment where priorities shift
*
