At PKF Smith Cooper, we do things differently. As one of the Midlands’ leading firms of accountants and business advisors, we pride ourselves on delivering more than just technical expertise; we build trusted, long-term relationships that make a real impact. Behind that success is a team of talented, forward-thinking individuals, each playing a key role in shaping the future of the businesses and people we support.

We have big plans for the future, including an ambitious goal to double in size over the next five years. To get there, we\'re investing heavily in our people, our services, and our culture.

When you join us, you’re not just stepping into a job; you’re stepping into meaningful work. You’ll be given the responsibility, trust, and support to make your mark from the outset, with guidance from our senior leaders and access to a wider team of experts.

We believe that great work happens in a great environment. That’s why we’ve built a culture based on empower, engage, and excel. From regular team socials and firm-wide summer events to sports teams, walking challenges, and our popular book club, there’s plenty to get involved in. Most importantly, you’ll be encouraged to bring your whole self to work and supported to grow both personally and professionally.

We’re looking for a proactive and collaborative Business Development Coordinator to join our ambitious team in Derby. This is a key role that will support and drive strategic business development initiatives across our East Midlands offices, working closely with Partners, Directors, and Senior Management.

You’ll be instrumental in helping us build strong relationships with clients, professional connectors, and prospects, while enhancing our visibility and market intelligence. If you’re highly organised, confident, engaging with stakeholders, and passionate about making an impact, we’d love to hear from you.
