This is a critical role for ensuring our business wins and delivers contracts that drive growth and success. If you’re commercially astute, detail-oriented, and thrive in a fast-paced environment, this could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.

The Role

As National Business Development Manager, you will be responsible for prospecting and closing new business opportunities. Your ability to adapt your approach based on your audience will be critical, as will your skill in opening

doors with key decision-makers across all sectors.

This role will focus heavily on high-level and national accounts, particularly those in FTSE 100 and FT1000 organisations. While we continue to support our local client base, this role will lead the charge in expanding our reach into national and international markets.

You will own and manage the entire sales cycle, quickly and effectively addressing opportunities and challenges. This is a strategic, high-impact role, requiring a solution-oriented, commercially astute professional with strong problem-solving skills.

Our service is unlike any other in the market, with clients often telling us, “we never knew a service like yours existed.” With our impressive conversion rate and market-leading offering, you’ll find ample opportunity to close deals and

grow business relationships.

Key Responsibilities

• Driving new business acquisition with a focus on large, multinational accounts.
• Developing and managing your own sales pipeline and prospecting efforts.
• Representing NCM as the face of the business with major clients.
• Ensuring a smooth handover of clients to the Auction team.
• Managing and troubleshooting day-to-day sales operations and issues.
• Collaborating with operational colleagues to build strong internal relationships.
• Identifying and executing process improvement opportunities to enhance efficiency.
• Reporting on sales performance and pipeline updates to senior management.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who thrives in an entrepreneurial environment and loves the thrill of acquiring new business.

Here’s what the ideal candidate will

bring:

• Proven experience in winning and managing high-value accounts (preferably FTSE 100/1000).
• Strong commercial acumen and tenacity in securing new business opportunities.
• A background in founder-led or scale-up businesses (preferred).
• Entrepreneurial spirit with a willingness to take calculated risks.
• Hands-on and proactive, with a focus on getting things done.
• Comfortable scaling small online businesses quickly, even with modest budgets.
• A proven track record in working with autonomy and shaping business success.
