Job description

Business Development Manager – Central London
Location: London (Field-Based)
Salary: £28,000 - £35,000 + Uncapped Commission
Type: Full-time | Permanent
Experience: 2–3 years in B2B sales or business development preferred

Are you a proactive sales professional who thrives on building relationships, uncovering new opportunities, and being out and about meeting clients face-to-face? If you're ready to take ownership of a growing sales function and be rewarded generously for your results, this could be the perfect next step for you.

About Us
We're a fast-growing company in the building services industry, offering essential service contracts and installations (including fire alarms, CCTV, access control, extinguishers, and more) across London. Until now, our sales have come through organic growth and existing networks—now, we're ready to bring in our first dedicated Business Development Manager to lead the charge in expanding our client base.

The Role
As our Business Development Manager, you'll be our boots on the ground in Central London, identifying and approaching businesses in sectors such as leisure, hospitality, gyms, and restaurants. You'll manage the entire sales journey—from the first conversation to closing the deal and nurturing the account for the first year.

Key responsibilities include:

• Prospecting new clients in person—walking the streets of London and popping into businesses
• Building trusted relationships with decision-makers
• Selling B2B service contracts, remedial works, and new installations
• Managing and growing your accounts for 12 months post-sale
• Following up leads and closing deals with autonomy

What's in it for you?

• All leads and opportunities are yours—you'll be the only person in this role initially
• Uncapped commission structure with earnings on all sales (not just contracts)
• Significant earning potential—average service contracts are £800–£1,200/year
• Ownership of accounts for 12 months post-sale, meaning more opportunities to earn
• Pathway to promotion—opportunity to step up into Sales Manager role as we expand
• Training & support during your first few months
• All expenses covered for client meetings, lunches, etc.

Compensation

• Basic salary: £28,000 - £35,000
• Uncapped commission – earn 5% on all sales above your monthly target
• Initial targets are modest (just a few thousand/month)
• After 6 months, a monthly target of £40k = £1,500/month commission (plus more on any additional sales)

Who We're Looking For

• 2–3 years of experience in B2B sales or business development
• A self-starter who's confident knocking on doors and building new relationships
• Someone who enjoys the freedom of being out in the field and isn't desk-bound
• Great communicator with a professional yet friendly approach
• Results-driven with a passion for closing deals and delivering value
