Business Development Consultant - Global Sales - OTE £85,000 in Milton Keynes

The transition to clean energy is one of the biggest industrial shifts of our generation, and at Tonic Talent, we're helping make it happen.

At Tonic Talent, we help some of the world’s most innovative clean technology companies find the people they need to grow.

Our clients operate across solar, electric vehicle charging, battery storage, green manufacturing and other rapidly expanding areas of the energy transition.

We have worked with globally recognised organisations including Tesla and LG, alongside ambitious scale-ups shaping the future of clean technology.

We're not a traditional recruitment business.

We're an award-winning, high-performance commercial business that was recently recognised as the most profitable recruitment business per head, outperforming more than 100 recruitment agencies.

That success has been built by investing in ambitious people, creating an exceptional working environment and rewarding performance properly.

Now we're looking for two Sales Development Representatives to help drive the next stage of our growth.

Why Tonic?

A Global Business Means Bigger Opportunities

Unlike many recruitment businesses focused solely on the UK, Tonic operates internationally, with a significant focus on the United States the world's largest and most commercially exciting clean technology market.

Working internationally allows us to partner with larger, faster-growing organisations, generate significantly higher recruitment fees and create far greater earning opportunities for our team.

Because we work primarily with US businesses, our commercial team operates

12:00pm–8:00pm Monday to Thursday , ensuring we're speaking with senior decision-makers during their business day.

Fridays offer greater flexibility, with hybrid working from home and our monthly collaboration day.

If you're ambitious, commercially driven and excited by the opportunity to build an international career with uncapped earning potential, this is an opportunity to join a business that's just getting started.

The Opportunity

As an MDR, you will be responsible for identifying and engaging new businesses across the clean technology sector.

You will speak with founders, directors, hiring managers and senior commercial leaders, helping them understand how Tonic can support their growth.

Your role is to open doors, create strong commercial opportunities and build the foundations of long-term client relationships.

• What You’ll Be Doing
• Research fast-growing companies across the clean energy and technology markets
• Identify decision-makers and potential hiring needs

• Uncapped Earning Potential

You will receive a competitive base salary alongside an uncapped performance-based commission structure.

Our MDRs receive 10% of the fee revenue generated from new client accounts they originate during the first 12 months of the client relationship.

This means your earnings are directly connected to the quality and commercial value of the business you create.

There is no artificial ceiling on what you can earn.

Our aim is not simply to hire someone who can perform this role today.

We want to help you build the skills, experience and client portfolio needed to become one of the top-performing earners in the UK.
