Business Development Executive

Central London | £40,000 Base + £20,000 OTE | Uncapped Commission
We’re working with one of the UK’s fastest-growing workplace design, fit-out and refurbishment businesses. They work with major brands and ambitious organisations to transform their workplaces, and they’re now looking for driven individuals to join their growing commercial team.

This isn’t about sitting behind a script and making endless calls. You’ll learn how to sell strategically, build relationships with senior decision-makers and uncover genuine commercial opportunities.

What you’ll be doing

• Identifying and engaging exciting new businesses across London and the UK
• Building relationships with Founders, Managing Directors, Operations Directors and workplace leaders
• Reaching out through phone, email, LinkedIn and networking
• Researching businesses and markets to spot new opportunities
• Qualifying opportunities and supporting the wider sales team
• Booking and attending meetings with prospective clients
• Developing genuine commercial expertise within the workplace sector
• Working closely with sales, marketing and project teams

What’s in it for you?

This Is Where The Opportunity Really Stands Out

• £40,000 basic salary
• £20,000 OTE in year one
• Uncapped commission
• Comprehensive sales training from day one
• Award-winning sales bootcamps
• Ongoing coaching and development
• Clear progression opportunities
• Private healthcare and dental cover
• Fully equipped gym
• On-site barista and daily food
• Monthly incentive trips
• Quarterly socials
• 28 days annual leave

There’s a real focus on developing people for the long term, with successful Business Development Executives typically progressing into Account Management within 12 months and further opportunities across Business Development, Client Success and commercial leadership.

Who are we looking for?

Potential Over Experience.

You don’t need previous sales experience or a background in the industry. We’re looking for people who are ambitious, confident, commercially curious and genuinely motivated to build a successful career.

You could come from sport, hospitality, retail, events, entrepreneurship or another customer-facing background. What matters most is your drive, resilience, communication skills and willingness to learn.

If you’re competitive, ambitious and looking for somewhere you can genuinely build a career rather than just take another job, this could be the opportunity for you.
