Regional Business Development Manager

Regional Business Development Manager | Financial Services North UK | Permanent | £60,000–£75,000 DOE + Bonus + Monthly Car Allowance
Ready to Make Your Mark in the North? Are you an experienced Business Development Manager or Broker Consultant within UK financial services, with a strong understanding of investments and a proven track record of building relationships with financial advisers and intermediaries?
This is an exciting opportunity to join an established organisation and take ownership of a key North UK territory, developing your network, winning new business and making a real impact on commercial growth.
You’ll have the autonomy to manage your own territory, diary and pipeline, while working closely with internal teams to deliver the wider commercial strategy.
The Role This is a genuinely market-facing position, combining face-to-face meetings, telephone and video engagement.
You’ll be responsible for:

• Developing and converting new business opportunities
• Building and growing relationships with financial advisers, brokers, intermediaries and professional distribution partners
• Managing and developing your regional territory and network
• Identifying new opportunities and growing existing relationships
• Presenting propositions and solutions to advisers and senior stakeholders
• Keeping up to date with market developments and competitor activity
• Sharing market insight with internal teams
• Managing your own diary, pipeline and priorities
• Attending relevant industry events, adviser meetings and networking opportunities
• Working collaboratively with internal teams to maximise commercial opportunities

Travel across the North will be an important part of the role, with some additional UK travel required.
What Are We Looking For? We’re looking for someone who already understands the UK financial-services distribution market and can build credibility quickly with financial advisers and professional intermediaries.
You’ll ideally have experience as a Broker Consultant, Business Development Manager, Intermediary Sales professional or in a similar adviser-facing commercial role.
You’ll bring:

• Proven business development experience within UK financial services
• Direct experience working with financial advisers, brokers, intermediaries or professional distribution partners
• Strong understanding of financial-services distribution and the adviser market
• Good knowledge of investments, wealth products and/or investment propositions
• A proven track record of winning and developing new business
• Strong relationship management, influencing and presentation skills
• Commercial awareness and a results-focused approach
• The confidence and self-motivation to manage your own territory
• A willingness to travel regularly across the North

Experience within investment platforms, asset management, fund management, wealth management, investment providers or intermediary sales would be particularly relevant.
Relevant knowledge of the UK regulatory environment would also be advantageous.
Why This Opportunity? This is more than simply another sales role. You’ll have the opportunity to:

• Own your territory and build your presence across the North
• Develop high-value relationships within the adviser and intermediary market
• Drive new business and directly contribute to commercial growth
• Work autonomously while being supported by an established commercial team
• Build your reputation and network within the financial-services market

Interested? If you’re an experienced Financial Services BDM or Broker Consultant who knows the adviser market, enjoys building genuine commercial relationships and is motivated by winning new business, I’d love to hear from you.
