Are you a proactive, driven sales professional who enjoys winning new business and building long-term commercial relationships? Our client is looking to recruit a Business Development Manager to focus on developing and growing a portfolio of local business customers. This is a fantastic opportunity for a true hunter—someone who thrives on prospecting, opening doors, and generating new opportunities rather than simply managing existing accounts. While automotive experience would be beneficial, it is not essential. Candidates with a proven track record in B2B sales, business development, field sales, account acquisition or consultative sales are strongly encouraged to apply.

  • No weekend working
  • Mix of dealership-based and customer-facing field sales activity

The Role

This is a consultative sales position focused on identifying opportunities, developing relationships and delivering tailored solutions to business customers. Key responsibilities include:

  • Proactively prospecting and generating new business opportunities
  • Developing relationships with local businesses and decision-makers
  • Arranging and attending customer appointments
  • Creating tailored sales and aftersales solutions for business clients
  • Building long-term customer relationships to maximise retention and growth
  • Managing the full sales process from initial contact through to delivery

About You

  • Previous experience in B2B sales, business development, field sales or account acquisition
  • Self-motivated, ambitious and target-driven
  • Strong prospecting and relationship-building skills
  • Comfortable generating your own opportunities and opening new accounts
  • Full UK Driving Licence required

Why Apply?

  • Genuine business development role with a strong focus on new business generation
  • Uncapped earning potential
  • Monday to Friday work-life balance
  • Autonomy to develop your own customer base and territory
