Job description

Business Development Manager - Strategic, Technical, and Customer-Focused

Remote (with travel to Telford once per month)
£40,000-£45,000 + 25% Bonus (Uncapped)

Are you a commercially sharp and technically astute sales professional ready to step into a high-impact, strategic role?

We’re looking for a Business Development Manager to lead growth in a key sales region (North or South), working with some of the most advanced businesses in the UK across sectors such as automotive, aerospace, composites, renewable energy, metallurgy, and chemicals.

This is a remote-first position with just one monthly visit to Telford — giving you flexibility, while staying connected with a collaborative, high-performing team.

The Opportunity

You’ll take ownership of your regional market, building relationships with strategic customers and identifying high-value opportunities. You'll work alongside applications specialists and customer solution teams to deliver tailored service and solution-based offerings.

Expect to become a market expert — not just in customer needs, but in industry processes, technical applications, and cutting-edge vacuum solutions. You’ll use this insight to drive growth, shape strategy, and secure long-term value.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Drive sales growth in target sectors within your region
  • Build deep relationships with new and existing customers
  • Engage in complex solution-based selling, leveraging technical knowledge
  • Collaborate with internal technical, marketing, and global teams
  • Manage opportunity pipelines, pricing strategies, and key data metrics
  • Represent your segment at industry events and with trade associations

What We’re Looking For

Essential:

  • Demonstrated success in complex B2B sales
  • Experience in business development or technical sales across at least one key sector (e.g. aerospace, automotive, composites, renewables, metallurgy, chemicals)
  • Technically confident — able to understand customer processes and identify appropriate solutions
  • Strong communicator, both in person and digitally
  • Comfortable using CRM and Microsoft tools (Excel, Teams, Word, PowerPoint)
  • Valid UK driver’s licence

Desirable:

  • Experience with systems design or project management
  • Familiarity with service contracts and value-based selling
  • Knowledge of SAP C4/HANA, Korn Ferry, or similar platforms
  • Marketing experience or input into campaign strategy
  • Prior experience with vacuum technologies or similar technical solutions

KPIs You’ll Own

  • Growth vs budget
  • Opportunity pipeline metrics and conversion rates
  • Data quality and CRM insights
  • Strategic pricing and customer feedback

Why This Role?

This is a pivotal role in a growing business aiming to hit £100m turnover and become the UK’s leading provider in its field. You’ll join at a time of strategic investment and long-term vision — with the autonomy to shape your region, your pipeline, and your success.

Ready to be part of something bigger? Apply now and help shape the future of UK industry.
