Job description

We're recruiting on behalf of one of the UK's most recognisable media organisations - a trusted name behind hundreds of local news brands across print and digital. As they continue to grow, we're looking for a Business Development Manager to join their commercial team, covering the Cheshire region.

This role is ideal for a motivated sales professional who enjoys building relationships, solving problems, and helping clients succeed through smart, effective advertising solutions.

About the Role

This is a consultative field sales role, with a focus on developing new business and managing a portfolio of existing clients. You'll be offering a range of advertising solutions - including both traditional media and digital marketing - to help businesses connect with their local audiences.

• Re-engaging lapped clients and developing long-term relationships
• Conducting client meetings via phone, video, and in person
• Offering tailored advertising solutions that align with client goals
• Managing your own sales pipeline and territory
• Achieving sales targets and KPIs with the support of a collaborative team

Who We're Looking For

You'll need some experience in B2B sales, ideally in a consultative or solution-led environment. More important than industry background is your ability to communicate confidently, understand client needs, and present ideas that deliver value.

We're looking for someone who:

• Has previous B2B sales experience (any sector welcome)
• Builds strong relationships and communicates clearly
• Is proactive, self-motivated, and target-driven
• Manages their time effectively and enjoys autonomy
• Has a genuine interest in helping businesses grow
