Are you a salesperson who thrives on building long-term client relationships?

Do you enjoy guiding projects from initial concept to successful delivery?

The Opportunity

A well-established electronics manufacturer is looking for a Business Development Manager to drive growth across the Midlands. You will manage a portfolio of existing clients while developing new business opportunities, supporting customers in delivering innovative solutions.

This is a consultative, client-focused sales role. You will work closely with customers, engineers, and project teams to understand needs and help bring projects to life. This is not a transactional role—you will have the chance to influence projects and build lasting relationships.

Key Responsibilities

• Grow sales and profitability across the Midlands by expanding project opportunities and deepening engagement with existing accounts
• Build and maintain strong relationships with key decision-makers and stakeholders
• Represent the business as a trusted partner for customers
• Manage projects from initial concept through full delivery (sales cycles typically 6 months to multiple years)
• Reactivate dormant accounts and convert high-potential prospects into loyal customers
• Provide reports, forecasts, and market insights to management
• Conduct face-to-face customer appointments within the Midlands, with occasional national or international travel

About You

• 2–3 years’ proven experience in B2B sales, ideally in a technical or engineering-led environment
• Track record of managing long-term customer relationships and complex projects
• Strong communication, negotiation, and presentation skills
• Self-motivated, energetic, and commercially driven
• Comfortable using CRM systems to manage pipelines and track activity
• Full UK driver’s license and willingness to travel nationally

What’s on Offer

• £50,000–£55,000 base salary (dependent on experience)
• Commission scheme with realistic OTE of £65,000–£70,000+
• Company car or car allowance
• 25 days annual leave (increasing with tenure) plus bank holidays
• Private medical insurance, BUPA Cashplan, and death-in-service cover
• Pension with company match up to 10%
• 24 / 7 GP service, travel insurance, and employee assistance programme
• Collaborative and supportive team environment
• Career development opportunities with a respected European electronics group

If you’re a consultative, client-focused salesperson looking for a dynamic, high-growth environment where your expertise and performance are directly rewarded, we’d love to hear from you.
