Business Development Manager

Location: North of England - Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, York, Newcastle

The Company:

With over 25 years of experience, this company is part of a rapidly expanding group that specialises in surveys and consultancy for commercial buildings throughout the UK. Backed by a major group in the facilities management sector, they offer a stable, dynamic, and supportive work environment.

The Role:

A brand-new opportunity has arisen for a Business Development Manager to join a rapidly growing company within the facilities management industry. This role will primarily be home-based. You will be selling a range of fire consultancy services aimed at buildings with high-risk status, typically those over seven stories tall. These services include fire risk assessments, safety consultancy, engineering analysis, and fire strategy support, all of which are required for building owners due to regulatory requirements.

In this role, you will be engaging with key decision-makers such as Estates Managers, Directors, and Health & Safety professionals across both public and private sector organisations. The Business Development Manager will be responsible for managing the full sales process from initial contact to closing deals. You will utilise a multi-channel approach to identify and engage customers, with typical sales cycles lasting around two months, though larger projects may span several years. All new business won will be yours to manage and develop.

Requirements:

To be considered for the Business Development Manager role, you will need:

  • A background in fire safety, fire consultancy, or risk assessment solutions
  • Experience in selling to decision-makers in the risk management or facilities management sector
  • Strong communication and negotiation skills
  • The ability to manage a long sales cycle and close large, complex deals
  • A proactive, consultative sales approach

The Future:

This is an excellent opportunity to play a pivotal role in the future growth of the business. With a team-oriented, supportive culture, you'll be empowered to succeed while working in an environment that places the customer at the heart of everything.

The Culture:

The company prides itself on being a close-knit team where collaboration and mutual support are key. A 'customer-first' mentality is at the core of the business, and everyone works together to achieve shared goals.

The Package for Business Development Manager:

  • Basic salary of £55,000 - £65,000 (DOE)
  • Commission potential of 30% - 40% of salary
  • Company car (hybrid options) or car allowance of £7,000 p/a
  • Mobile phone and laptop
  • Pension scheme
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays (with the ability to purchase more)
  • Life insurance
