New Business Development Executive

Are you a proactive new-business hunter who enjoys creating opportunities from scratch and building relationships with organisations that others struggle to reach? Do you thrive on identifying the right decision makers, starting conversations with new prospects and finding ways to get your foot in the door with major businesses? If you’re motivated by winning new business, overcoming challenges and turning cold prospects into genuine commercial opportunities, this could be the ideal next step in your career.

We’re recruiting for an established manufacturer based in Derby, looking for a driven Business Development Executive to generate new opportunities across major industrial and enterprise organisations. This is a genuine outbound-focused role where you’ll build your own pipeline from scratch, identify potential customers and connect with key decision makers. You won’t inherit a warm pipeline or spend your days managing existing accounts. Instead, you’ll be responsible for creating qualified opportunities and earning uncapped commission based on the revenue they generate.

This is an excellent chance to develop your commercial skills, take on increasing responsibility and build a long-term career within a growing business. You’ll work closely with experienced sales professionals and senior management, gaining valuable exposure to major accounts and strategic business development, with the potential to progress as the business continues to expand.
