Job Overview:

We are seeking a confident, organised, and personable Executive Consultant to join a dynamic UK-based consultancy. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on building meaningful professional relationships, driving business growth through engagement, and presenting a polished and credible presence to clients. Working alongside a visionary founder and established team, you'll play a key role in generating leads, fostering trust, and converting high-value opportunities — all while delivering the feel of a London-based, high-touch professional presence.

If you're passionate about business development but more interested in relationships than cold selling, this opportunity is crafted for you.

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct outreach to potential clients via calls, emails, and video introductions, establishing early rapport and trust.
• Schedule and manage client meetings on behalf of senior consultants and the founder.
• Represent the business in a professional, articulate manner during virtual meetings — giving clients the impression of a London-based presence.
• Maintain regular follow-up with prospective clients to nurture leads and increase conversion rates.
• Track interactions, build pipelines, and provide insights to improve outreach strategies.
• Support the founder with business development initiatives and strategic growth activities.
• Collaborate with internal teams to understand service offerings and match client needs accurately.
• Prepare briefs and support documentation for upcoming meetings and client follow-ups.

Qualifications and Experience:

• Minimum 3 years of experience in client-facing business development, consulting, or relationship management roles.
• Exceptional English communication skills (verbal and written), with a confident and refined presence.
• Proven ability to build trust and develop long-term client relationships.
• Experience using Linked In and other CRM systems
• Tech-savvy and comfortable using CRM tools, scheduling platforms, and video conferencing (Zoom, Google Meet, etc).
• Must have a reliable internet connection, own laptop or desktop, and a quiet, professional remote setup.
• Experience engaging UK clients or international markets is advantageous.
