Business Development Manager
You know how much effort it takes to close a deal.
Months of building relationships, finding the right people, earning their trust.
And when you finally get that order across the line, you want to know your colleagues will deliver exactly what you promised.
At Easilift, you can count on that.
Every time.
What you'll make happen
Easilift manufactures its own loading solutions.
That means bespoke where others offer standard, and a team of engineers who have been with the business for years and know the product inside out.
Together, you make sure every customer gets exactly what was agreed.
You’ll be well supported from the start.
A dedicated colleague handles initial outreach, qualifies leads and books appointments for you.
Behind you stands a team that delivers.
You connect those two worlds and turn them into business.
Together, you're here to make your mark on the market.

- You pick up warm leads from your internal colleague and take them from first conversation to signed order.
- You negotiate contracts and make sure commercial agreements work for both the customer and Easilift.
- You spot opportunities with existing contacts who request quotes but have yet to place an order.
- You represent Easilift at industry events and networking opportunities, building the company's profile in the market.
- You share market developments and competitor insights with the wider team.
