  • Minimum 5+ years’ experience in B2B business development within apparel, textiles, uniforms, or corporate fashion.
  • A strong understanding of complex sales cycles, particularly in project-based or bespoke manufacturing environments.
  • Proven ability to identify, pitch, and close deals with C-suite and senior decision-makers.
  • Experience in selling design-led or premium B2B solutions, ideally with customisation or branding elements.
  • A genuine interest in design, fashion, or garment production, and an appreciation for how branding is expressed through uniform and identity.
  • Confident using CRM tools, pipeline tracking, and sales metrics to inform strategy.

Why Join Us?

  • Real ownership: Play a pivotal role in shaping the sales direction of a niche, high-profile business.
  • Visible impact: Work directly with senior leadership and see the results of your work come to life.
  • Hybrid & flexible: Office-based 2-3 days per week in our vibrant West London HQ, with flexible working options.
