City of London | £60,000–£80,000 Base + Uncapped Commission | 5 Days Office-Based
An exceptional earning opportunity for a proven Business Development professional with an established network across fintech, AI, defence or sustainable technology.
We’re partnering with a rapidly growing specialist consultancy based in the heart of the City. Following significant growth, they are looking for a commercially ambitious Business Development Manager to help develop new client relationships across some of the UK’s most innovative and fast-growing sectors.
This is a relationship-led new business role. You’ll be engaging founders, CEOs, CFOs and other senior decision-makers, using your existing network alongside proactive business development to open doors, create opportunities and build long-term client relationships.
With a £60,000–£80,000 base salary, uncapped commission and OTE of approximately £200,000–£300,000 for successful performers, there is significant earning potential for someone who can genuinely originate business.
The Role
- Develop new business across fintech, AI, defence and sustainable technology.
- Leverage your existing network to create introductions and commercial opportunities.
- Build trusted relationships with founders, C-suite executives and senior decision-makers.
- Identify and engage businesses that could benefit from the consultancy’s specialist services.
- Develop and execute targeted go-to-market strategies within your sectors.
- Own opportunities from initial introduction through to client engagement.
- Build and maintain a strong, high-quality pipeline.
- Represent the business at relevant industry events and networking opportunities.
- Work closely with internal specialists to deliver a seamless experience for prospective and new clients.
- Take ownership of pipeline management, forecasting and commercial performance.
About You
You’ll ideally have around 4–5 years’ experience in business development, partnerships or a similarly commercial role and, importantly, an established network within fintech, AI, defence and/or sustainable technology.
We’re looking for someone who can demonstrate:
- A credible network of senior decision-makers and the ability to leverage those relationships.
- A track record of originating and winning new business.
- Confidence engaging founders and C-suite stakeholders.
- Strong commercial judgement and an ability to identify genuine opportunities.
- A proactive, entrepreneurial approach to developing a market.
- Excellent relationship-building and communication skills.
- A track record of achieving ambitious commercial targets.
Previous experience within tax or innovation funding is not essential. The specialist knowledge can be taught – what matters is your network, commercial credibility and ability to generate business.
Package
- Uncapped commission
- Private medical, pension, life assurance and income protection
- Additional flexible benefits and volunteering days
This is an opportunity for an ambitious business developer who has already built strong senior relationships and wants to be directly rewarded for the business they generate.
If you have the network, commercial instinct and drive to turn relationships into significant opportunities, we’d love to hear from you.
