Description:
Business Development Director
UK (Regional / Hybrid)
£75,000 – £80,000 + Bonus + Car/Allowance
The Opportunity
We’re working with a well-established, fast-growing support services organisation to appoint a Business Development Director for a key region/vertical.
This is a senior commercial role with full responsibility for new business growth, key account retention, and strategic pipeline development, reporting directly into a Regional/Vertical Managing Director.
This role offers something many roles don’t:
Genuine influence, autonomy, and a culture people don’t want to leave.
The Role
You will take ownership of growth across your region/sector, with a remit that includes:
* Driving new business acquisition, focusing on high-value strategic opportunities
* Leading bid strategy and commercial negotiations
* Owning major contract renewals, ensuring strong retention and client development
* Building and maintaining senior-level client relationships
* Developing and managing a robust sales pipeline and forecast
* Working closely with operational and customer teams to deliver growth from existing accounts
* Leading and developing Business Development Managers (where applicable)
This is a hands-on, high-impact role – you’ll be expected to lead from the front as well as contribute at a strategic level.
About You
We’re looking for an experienced business development professional who can operate at both strategic and execution level:
* Proven track record of winning and closing high-value contracts
* Strong background in complex B2B / outsourced / service-led environments
* Experience engaging and influencing senior stakeholders
* Commercially astute, driven and highly self-motivated
* Previous team leadership experience is advantageous, but not essential
What this role offers is:
A high-trust, low-politics environment
Leadership that is visible, supportive, and values-driven
A business that is growing strongly and sustainably
Real autonomy to shape your market and approach
Long-term career opportunity within a people-first organisation
This is about joining a business where:
* Your voice is heard
* Your impact is visible
* And the culture actually matches what’s promised
Why Apply?
This role suits someone who wants to:
* Step into a broader, more strategic leadership role
* Escape overly corporate, process-heavy environments
* Work in a business where culture and performance go hand-in-hand
* Still earn well, but gain significantly more in job satisfaction and autonomy
