Chapman Tate Associates seeks a Business Development Manager (ERP Solutions) to join this fast-growing solutions provider of ERP software to the Manufacturing and Distribution Sectors.

Are you a hunter who loves winning new business? Do you thrive on opening doors, building relationships, and closing deals? We\'re looking for a Business Development Manager to sell Tier 2 ERP solutions (Epicor, Infor, IFS, Aptean, QAD, or similar) into the manufacturing and Engineer-to-Order (ETO) sectors.

This is a role for a true deal-maker. You\'ll take ownership of the full sales cycle—prospecting, qualifying, pitching, negotiating, and closing—while engaging with senior stakeholders across IT, Operations, and the C-Suite.

What You\'ll Be Doing

• Driving new business across the UK, with focus on the Manchester-Birmingham corridor.
• Generating leads through your own network, consultants, industry bodies, and proactive outreach.
• Running the end-to-end sales process, from first contact to signed contract.
• Positioning ERP as a transformation tool that improves productivity and competitiveness.
• Presenting proposals that win buy-in from Directors and C-Suite executives.
• Partnering with pre-sales and delivery teams to hand over closed deals seamlessly.

What We\'re Looking For

• A proven ERP/enterprise software salesperson, ideally with Epicor or comparable Tier 2 ERP experience.
• Background in discrete manufacturing or ETO.
• A hunter mentality - driven, competitive, and focused on results.
• Consultative sales skills with the ability to influence decision-makers at all levels.
• Strong professional network in business change or lean manufacturing (desirable).
• Willingness to travel UK-wide to close business.

What\'s in It for You

• Competitive base salary + uncapped commission.
• Freedom to grow your own territory in a high-demand market.
• The chance to represent a leading ERP solution.
• Career development, training, and long-term progression opportunities.

If you\'re a closer who thrives on new business and wants to shape the future of UK manufacturing and Distribution, we want to talk to you
