You roam the B2B sales jungle like a predator in the wild, on the lookout for your next big deal. If you love wearing the hunter hat, then we have the perfect opportunity for you to join us as a Business Development Manager with a focus on our healthcare and local government customers within the London and South area. This team boasts some of our most prestigious accounts and consistently hits targets, so if you are looking for a lucrative and rewarding career, you have come to the right place! You’ll be navigating and driving cross-sell and new business growth across the sector.

Your expedition mission is to deliver sales (TCV) targets from allocated accounts and generate leads and convert leads to orders. This will involve leading the development of customer propositions, typically in excess of £250k in value, securing internal approval to propose and presenting the benefits of the proposal to the customer.
