About RTKFnet
RTKFnet is a leading independent provider of high-precision RTK correction services across the UK and Ireland.
Founded in precision agriculture, we now support customers across construction, surveying, drones, rail, marine and other professional positioning applications.
We own and operate an extensive network of GNSS base stations and manage our service in-house, from network infrastructure through to account provisioning and customer support.
As the business continues to grow, we are looking for an experienced National Business Development Manager to lead our commercial development outside agriculture.
The role
This is a national business development role focused on growing RTKFnet’s presence across construction, surveying, drones and other professional positioning markets.
You will identify new opportunities, build relationships with dealers, integrators, manufacturers and end users, and convert these relationships into recurring subscription revenue.
The role combines proactive outreach, customer meetings, industry events, online engagement and regular UK travel. You will take ownership of opportunities from initial contact through to commercial close, supported by RTKFnet’s technical and service teams where required.
The position is home-based, with regular travel across the UK and periodic attendance at our Cambridgeshire office.
Key responsibilities
- Develop new business across construction, surveying, drones and related positioning markets.
- Build and manage a strong national pipeline of qualified opportunities.
- Identify and approach prospective customers, dealers, integrators and strategic partners.
- Attend relevant exhibitions, conferences and industry events.
- Arrange and conduct customer meetings, demonstrations and presentations.
- Develop opportunities through phone, email, direct outreach and online meetings.
- Understand customer requirements and coordinate suitable commercial proposals.
- Manage opportunities from initial contact through to negotiation and close.
- Develop relationships with equipment manufacturers and technology partners.
- Maintain accurate activity, opportunity and pipeline records in HubSpot.
- Work with the technical team to validate more complex customer requirements.
- Support the development of sector-specific propositions, pricing and sales materials.
- Provide market feedback to help guide commercial and product development.
About you
You will be a proactive and commercially driven business developer who is comfortable creating opportunities rather than waiting for enquiries.
You will need:
- Experience within construction technology, surveying, geospatial, drones, GNSS, positioning or a related technical market.
- A strong record of developing relationships and converting opportunities into revenue.
- The confidence to approach new customers, dealers and commercial partners directly.
- The ability to understand technical products and explain their commercial value clearly.
- Strong communication, presentation and negotiation skills.
- The organisation and self-discipline required to manage a national, home-based role.
- Experience using a CRM system to manage activity and pipeline.
- A willingness to travel regularly and attend industry events.
- A full UK driving licence.
- Access to a suitable vehicle for business travel, with appropriate business-use insurance.
Experience with RTK, GNSS, NTRIP, surveying equipment, machine control or precision-positioning systems would be particularly valuable.
What we offer
- Competitive basic salary, depending on experience.
- Performance-related commission.
- Reimbursement of business mileage and reasonable travel expenses.
- Company pension.
- Life assurance.
- Laptop, phone and necessary business equipment.
- A national role with significant freedom and commercial ownership.
- The opportunity to help shape RTKFnet’s growth into new and developing markets.
