About the Opportunity:
We are looking for an ambitious and commercially minded Business Development Manager to lead and develop our growing Sportswear and Merchandise division.
This is an exciting opportunity for an individual to take ownership of a developing business area, establish new routes to market and drive growth across our range of sportswear, branded merchandise and promotional products.
Working closely with the company’s senior management team, you will be responsible for developing and implementing the division’s commercial strategy, identifying new business opportunities and creating effective sales and marketing plans to maximise growth.
Key responsibilities:
- Develop and implement a strategy to grow sales across our sportswear and promotional products ranges.
- Identify new markets, customer segments, trade partnerships and routes to market.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with B2B customers, trade customers, sports clubs, schools and organisations.
- Develop marketing plans, product launches and promotional campaigns to increase awareness and generate sales.
- Manage and develop the sales pipeline, setting clear targets and monitoring commercial performance.
- Identify new product opportunities and work closely with internal teams to bring products to market.
- Work collaboratively with sales, marketing and production to deliver a strong customer experience and profitable growth.
About you:
- A relevant marketing or business qualification would be welcomed— although practical experience, commercial awareness and a proven ability to deliver results are equally important.
- Experience in promotional products, sportswear, branded merchandise or a related industry would be advantageous, but is not essential for the right candidate.
- You should have strong sales and business development skills, an understanding of B2B markets and the ability to develop and execute a clear commercial strategy.
This is an opportunity to play a key role in developing a growing division, with the scope to make a real impact on the future direction and success of the business.
