Job Description:

Due to company growth, an exciting and brand-new opportunity has arisen for an experienced Business Development Manager to join a fast-growing and highly successful energy and data organisation.

The role is fully remote, with attendance at Head Office in Surrey approximately once a month. The geographical focus is national within the UK, selling EV charge points, solar, and decarbonisation technologies to businesses, developing partnerships.

The role involves a 50/50 split between new sales and approaching existing customers from a warm database. The ideal candidate is a true sales professional with proven business development experience, a confident and friendly approach, and enjoys building relationships. You will be targeted to attend at least one face-to-face customer meeting per week and approximately four Teams meetings.

The emphasis is on quality meetings rather than call volume. You will generate leads, identify, engage, and secure new business, then pass clients to a dedicated Account Manager for a smooth handover.

You will work towards KPIs, with a flexible approach, reporting results, and providing market research insights. While accountable for your own work, teamwork, sharing ideas, knowledge, and experience are strongly encouraged.

If your experience and personality align with this profile, this could be a great career move. The small, rapidly growing team offers plenty of opportunities for skill and experience development.

A competitive basic salary, achievable uncapped commission, all expenses paid, and a fantastic benefits package are on offer.

Skills/Experience and Attributes Required:

• Ideally 2-5 years of solid experience as a Business Development Manager
• Experience of face-to-face B2B sales is essential
• Degree educated preferred
• Driving license preferred
• Experience in EV charging or solar power sales is highly desirable
• Knowledge or passion for EV charging is a plus
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, especially PowerPoint
• Experience in lead generation, tracking, and closing deals
• Inquisitive with strong fact-finding skills
• Excellent relationship-building skills
• Modern, dynamic approach to selling using various technologies
• Friendly, approachable personality
• Consultative sales approach with strong sales acumen
