£36,000 base + OTE (minimum £60,000)

Basecamp Talent is partnering with a fast-growing commercial energy technology business to hire multiple BDMss into their expanding commercial team.

This is an opportunity to join a company that has scaled from £1.8m to £6m revenue in under three years, with strong investment behind continued growth.

Unlike traditional Business Development, this role is focused on quality-led outreach rather than high-volume cold calling. You’ll work from highly targeted prospect lists, supported by AI-assisted research tools, market intelligence, and full product training to help you have genuinely valuable commercial conversations.

The role:

• Conducting outbound outreach to senior commercial decision-makers


• Booking and sitting qualified demos

• Managing activity and commercial insights within Salesforce CRM


• Working closely with senior commercial leadership in a scaling business

What they’re looking for:

• Strong communication skills and commercial confidence


• Comfortable speaking with senior stakeholders


• Previous sales, SDR, BDR, telesales, or outbound experience is beneficial but not essential


• Motivated by progression, targets, and high earning potential


• Organised and process-driven


• Experience using Salesforce or similar CRM platforms is advantageous

Why this opportunity stands out:

• Clear progression into a Business Development Director position


• Fast-growth environment with genuine career acceleration


• High-quality outbound strategy focused on conversations over dial volume


• Strong onboarding, support, and product training

If you’re ambitious, commercially driven, and looking to build a long-term career within a scaling technology business, we’d love to speak with you.
