Job Description
Scaling Up Europe’s Fastest Growing B2B Auction Firm
The Story
NCM Auctions is far from your average or traditional auction firm. We are a truly innovative and modern company, operating across the UK and Europe within a highly diverse sales territory. Our clients include global brands, government agencies, and commercial and industrial organisations. With a unique service offering and an exciting working environment, we stand out as a trailblazer in the industry.
Since our inception in 2012, we’ve grown from a small start-up to a multi-award-winning ‘scale-up’ firm, achieving consistent year-on-year growth. Recognised as one of the Financial Times’ Top 1000 fastest-growing companies in Europe, we are on a mission to scale even further.
The Why
This next year marks a pivotal stage in our ambitious growth plans. We’re searching for an intelligent, dynamic, organised, and driven individual to join our team. This is a rare opportunity to work for a high-growth company that offers a rewarding and progressive career path — potentially advancing from a new recruit to a boardroom seat in record time for the right candidate.
There’s never been a more exciting time to join NCM. From winning some of the biggest client names in the industry to moving into new purpose-built offices, we are elevating all aspects of the business. We’re looking for someone entrepreneurial, self-motivated, and ready to hit the ground running. In return, you’ll enjoy autonomy, freedom, and a great working environment — in exchange for outstanding results, strong leadership, and exceptional delivery.
The Role
As National Business Development Manager, you will be responsible for prospecting and closing new business opportunities. Your ability to adapt your approach based on your audience will be critical, as will your skill in opening doors with key decision-makers across all sectors.
This role will focus heavily on high-level and national accounts, particularly those in FTSE 100 and FT1000 organisations. While we continue to support our local client base, this role will lead the charge in expanding our reach into national and international markets.
You will own and manage the entire sales cycle, quickly and effectively addressing opportunities and challenges. This is a strategic, high-impact role, requiring a solution-oriented, commercially astute professional with strong problem-solving skills.
Our service is unlike any other in the market, with clients often telling us, “we never knew a service like yours existed.” With our impressive conversion rate and market-leading offering, you’ll find ample opportunity to close deals and grow business relationships.
Key Responsibilities
* Driving new business acquisition with a focus on large, multinational accounts.
* Developing and managing your own sales pipeline and prospecting efforts.
* Representing NCM as the face of the business with major clients.
* Ensuring a smooth handover of clients to the Auction team.
* Managing and troubleshooting day-to-day sales operations and issues.
* Collaborating with operational colleagues to build strong internal relationships.
* Identifying and executing process improvement opportunities to enhance efficiency.
* Reporting on sales performance and pipeline updates to senior management.
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who thrives in an entrepreneurial environment and loves the thrill of acquiring new business. Here’s what the ideal candidate will bring:
* Proven experience in winning and managing high-value accounts (preferably FTSE 100/1000).
* Strong commercial acumen and tenacity in securing new business opportunities.
* A background in founder-led or scale-up businesses (preferred).
* Entrepreneurial spirit with a willingness to take calculated risks.
* Hands-on and proactive, with a focus on getting things done.
* Comfortable scaling small online businesses quickly, even with modest budgets.
* A proven track record in working with autonomy and shaping business success.
Why Join NCM Auctions?
We offer:
* A highly competitive salary, commensurate with your experience and the value you bring.
* Uncapped bonus potential.
* 30 days holiday (including statutory).
* Pension scheme.
* Full travel and expenses coverage.
* Access to our onsite company gym.
