This is a rare opportunity for a Business Development Specialist seeking more than just a job. It’s a chance to join a thriving business and play an integral role in its development - ultimately like running our own business!

The successful Sales Manager will be joining a non-corporate, agile company with strong cash flow and an excellent reputation for selling quality products and services into the housing development / new home construction sector.

You'll have the freedom to make your mark, with no micromanagement, and the opportunity to shape the expansion strategy within your region. You’ll also get:

1. A base salary between £40k - £60k DEO
2. Performance-related bonus
3. Autonomy, trust, and full support from the company directors

What you’ll do:

Our client is a leading specialist who works with major housebuilders and developers across the UK, they’re now looking to grow their Southern presence – and you’ll play a key role in making that happen.

Covering the South East Region, you’ll manage and grow a portfolio of customers in the new build and housing development space. It’s a mix of maintaining existing relationships and winning new business – so you’ll need the drive to open doors, along with the credibility to work with national builders. Duties include:

1. Managing and growing a regional client base within the homebuilding sector
2. Developing strong relationships with key decision-makers across national and regional housebuilders
3. Delivering on revenue targets and helping to shape growth strategy across the South
4. Working autonomously, with full backing and support – but freedom to work your way

What we’re looking for:

1. Experience selling into housing developers, new build contractors, or national homebuilders
2. A tenacious, proactive approach to new business and relationship development
3. Someone who thrives with autonomy and is driven by results, not red tape
4. Ambition to grow a region and, in time, lead and develop a sales team
