If you are you a results-driven sales professional, our client is a market leader in Temperature Controlled Solutions and looking an ambitious Business Development Manager to lead growth across the organisation

This is a key role focused on securing new business opportunities, building strong relationships with retail and trade clients (including convenience stores, supermarkets, and installers), and driving long-term partnerships that power sustainable revenue growth.

If you thrive in a technical sales environment and are motivated by tangible success, this would be ideal for you!

Some key duties and Responsibilities will include (but not be limited to):

  • Leading impactful client meetings
  • Collaborating with internal teams (Marketing, Contracts, Retail) to ensure smooth service delivery.
  • Preparing proposals, responding to tenders, and negotiating commercial terms.
  • Overseeing the entire sales cycle - from initial lead to closed deal and onboarding.
  • Representing the company at industry events, trade shows, and networking functions.
  • Reporting on performance, trends, and competitor activity to inform ongoing strategy.
  • Driving upsell and cross-sell opportunities within current client base.

Skills and experience you'll need:

  • Proven success in B2B business development or technical sales
  • A consultative, relationship-first sales style, with the ability to build trust and close deals.
  • Strong strategic thinking
  • Excellent communication and negotiation skills - confident with senior stakeholders.
  • Commercially savvy with a solid understanding of gross margin and financial principles.
  • Highly organised, self-driven, and able to manage multiple priorities effectively.
  • Proficient with CRM systems, Microsoft Office, and proposal tools.
  • Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel.

This is a new role and a fantastic opportunity to make a genuine impact on the organisation.
