    Business Development Manager - Durham

    Business Development Manager

    Remote (linked to West Auckland base)


    Salary: up to £80,000 basic | OTE c.£115,000 | Bonus + Car Allowance | Permanent

     

    An expanding, forward‑thinking organisation is seeking an ambitious Business Development Manager to drive a new phase of commercial growth.

     

    This role is ideal for a results‑driven B2B sales professional who thrives on opening doors, shaping sales strategy, and securing high‑value partnerships.

     

    Why This Role Stands Out

    The Business Development Manager will hold a strategic, high‑impact position, responsible for securing new accounts, strengthening commercial relationships, and directly influencing the company’s long‑term growth trajectory.

     

    Working remotely, the role offers genuine autonomy - perfect for someone who performs at their best when trusted to deliver.

     

    Key Areas of Responsibility

     

    The Business Development Manager will:

    • Identify, target, and win new business opportunities in key markets
    • Develop and execute strategic sales plans aligned to growth objectives
    • Build influential relationships with senior stakeholders and decision‑makers
    • Manage the full sales cycle, from initial outreach through to negotiation and close
    • Track market trends and competitor activity to maximise commercial advantage

     

    About the Ideal Candidate for the BDM Role

     

    This opportunity suits a seasoned sales professional with a track record of success in B2B environments.

     

    The successful candidate will bring:

    • Strong commercial acumen and a consultative approach
    • Excellent communication and influencing skills
    • A driven, self‑motivated mindset with a focus on results
    • Confidence operating at senior level and managing complex sales cycles

     

    What’s on Offer

    • Competitive basic salary circa £80,000
    • OTE c.£115,000
    • Annual bonus potential up to 25%
    • Company car or car allowance
    • Life assurance (4x salary)
    • Flexible working and ongoing professional development

     

    We’re committed to promoting inclusive opportunities. If you’re excited about this Business Development Manager role but don’t meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply — your unique perspective could be exactly what they’re looking for.
