We're partnering with an internationally recognised packaging group that's investing heavily in innovation, technology and commercial growth—and they're looking for an ambitious Business Development Manager to help shape the next phase of their UK success.

This isn't a high-volume cold calling role. It's a strategic opportunity to build lasting relationships, develop high-value accounts and sell market-leading packaging and print solutions to some of the UK's biggest brands.

What you'll be doing:

  • Managing and converting a steady flow of qualified inbound enquiries
  • Building relationships with key decision-makers and brand owners
  • Developing opportunities across Food, FMCG, Retail and Premium Packaging sectors
  • Working with an established commercial team driving significant growth
  • Selling innovative packaging solutions backed by industry-leading print technology

Why join?

  • High level of qualified leads to action
  • Unique print capabilities
  • Supported by international manufacturing operations
  • Excellent earning potential with unrivalled commission
  • Opportunity to develop strategic, long-term customer partnerships rather than transactional sales

We'd love to hear from you if you:

  • Have experience in business development, sales or account management
  • Are commercially driven, proactive and relationship-focused
  • Have packaging or print experience (ideal, but not essential)
  • Are an Account Manager ready to step into a new business role
  • Enjoy managing longer sales cycles and complex commercial opportunities

If you're looking to join a business that's genuinely transforming its industry—and want to play a key role in its future growth—we'd love to hear from you. Apply today or contact us for a confidential conversation.
