Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting business development activities and following up on enquiries.

• Monitoring upcoming construction projects, tenders and potential contracts.

• Assisting with tender documentation, proposals and presentations.

• Maintaining accurate CRM records and tracking sales opportunities.

• Supporting LinkedIn, marketing campaigns and networking activities.

• Working alongside the commercial team to help turn opportunities into new business.

What are we looking for?

We're looking for someone who is naturally confident, enjoys speaking with people and has a genuine interest in business development.

Ideally, you'll have:

• Experience in business development, sales, account management or commercial coordination.

• Excellent communication skills and a professional, friendly approach.

• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.

• Confidence researching companies and approaching potential clients.

• Good IT skills, including Microsoft Office and CRM systems.

• A proactive attitude and the ability to use your own initiative.

• The ability to manage several tasks and follow opportunities through. xiskglj

Experience within construction, engineering, property or facilities management would be an advantage, but isn't essential.
