Drive Growth. Shape Strategy. Make Your Mark.

My client is a well-established IT company based on the South East Coast. Known for their outstanding client retention and service-led culture, they’ve grown organically through referrals and are now looking for a dedicated Business Development Manager to lead their growth strategy. This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a trusted IT business while working directly with the Managing Director.

What You’ll Do This is a blended role combining new business generation with account management responsibilities. You will:

Lead new business development – identify and engage potential clients, generate leads, craft proposals, and close deals
Nurture key client relationships – manage a portfolio of existing key accounts, maintain satisfaction, and spot upsell opportunities
Represent the company externally – attend local networking events and build partnerships
Kickstart marketing efforts – contribute to online presence, help create campaigns, and gather client success stories
Collaborate internally – work closely with the MD, sales support, and technical team to scope and deliver tailored IT solutions

What You’ll Bring

• 2+ years in a B2B sales or account management role, ideally in IT/MSP services
• A strong understanding of core IT services (e.g. Microsoft 365, cloud, cybersecurity)
• A natural communicator and relationship builder
• Confidence attending networking events and representing a brand
• A proactive, self-motivated mindset — you’ll own this function
• Solid planning, reporting, and commercial awareness
• A UK driving licence and willingness to travel locally

Why Join My Client?

• Autonomy & Impact: You’ll be the go-to for sales strategy, reporting directly to the MD
• No red tape: Small, agile business with a trusted reputation and huge potential
• True variety: New business, account growth, marketing input — all in one role
• Stability & flexibility: £40,000 - £45,000 salary with a bonus structure that rewards your contribution as well as excellent benefits including flexible working (a 9-day fortnight), monthly car allowance, pension, discounts and more
• Growth runway: As the business expands, so could your role
