Job Description:

Business Development Executive
Salary: £34,000 basic + commission
Hours: Monday - Friday  9am - 5pm
Location: Hybrid / Remote (initial training in Bishop's Stortford)
 
We're working with a growing and highly dynamic business looking to bring in a driven Business Development Executive to join their commercial team.
 
This is a specialist role focused purely on generating high-quality opportunities — not closing deals. If you enjoy the front end of the sales process, thrive on outbound activity, and like seeing direct results from your efforts, this could be a really good fit.
 
The Role
 
This position sits at the heart of the sales function, responsible for building a strong pipeline of qualified prospects and booking appointments for senior team members.
 
You'll be identifying potential clients, engaging them through a mixture of cold outreach and targeted campaigns, and securing attendance for site visits and meetings.
It's a structured, high-activity role where consistency, organisation, and resilience are key.
 
What You'll Be Doing

• Running targeted outbound campaigns (phone, email, LinkedIn)
• Identifying and engaging with prospective B2B clients
• Building and maintaining a strong pipeline of opportunities
• Booking qualified meetings and site visits
• Using CRM systems and sales tools to manage outreach and follow-ups
• Researching and targeting high-potential businesses
• Supporting overall pipeline growth and commercial performance

What We're Looking For

• 1-3 years' experience in sales, business development, or lead generation
• Confident communicator, comfortable with high-volume outreach
• Proven ability to generate leads, meetings, or opportunities
• Resilient, proactive, and self-motivated
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail
• Comfortable working in a target-driven environment
• Strong commercial awareness and a results-focused mindset
• Experience within B2B environments is important
• You must be able to drive and have your own transport

 
Package & Working Setup

• £34,000 basic + Commission
• Initial onboarding period (approx. 1 month) in Bishop's Stortford
• Hybrid / remote working thereafter, with regular in-person meetings
