Business Development Manager

London, Paddington

Hybrid/Onsite

Are you a Sales Rep or Business Development Manager with experience selling construction materials?

Do you love building relationships and closing deals?

Want to be part of a fast-growing AI startup shaking up the construction industry?

Ready to take your sales career to the next level with a game-changing product?

About us

We’re Prolo, an AI-driven procurement startup transforming how construction companies source materials. With no setup costs, instant savings, and seamless ordering, our solution is a no-brainer for customers—and we need a driven Account Manager to help us scale.

Tasks

As the first Business Development Manager in our sales department, you will help to build the sales function, alongside our CEO.

We are working towards a clear ICP and effective scripts and sales collateral already in place but you’ll have influence over the development of our tools and processes.

Reaching out to potential customers and introducing our product will be an immediate focus, encouraging first orders and building long-term relationships for repeat orders.

You’ll be the first hire into our sales department but certainly not the last so it's likely you’ll help out with the onboarding, training and support of future hires in the sales team.

We have ambitious sales targets to hit over the next few months ahead of our Seed raise later this year.

Requirements

A proven track record in a Sales Rep or Business Development Manager role within construction, builders' merchants, or similar industries.

Excellent communication skills and the ability to build rapport quickly.

Ambition, drive, and a self-starter mentality.

Someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth startup environment.

The ability to spend at least 3 days onsite at our Paddington office.

Our product is very sticky and has little friction in adoption.

We have a simple and effective sales process.

You’ll be working closely with the CEO to develop the sales function.

We offer generous commission which is likely to double your base salary.

You’ll have share options so you share in the future success of the business.

We have an unlimited holiday allowance so you’ll have a good work/life balance.

Apply today for immediate consideration!

Procurement within the construction industry is traditional, analogue and ripe for disruption. Our service leverages cutting-edge AI, including Large Language Models (LLMs), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and voice transcription, to bypass outdated practices in the construction industry. This technology enhances decision-making, increases efficiency, and delivers a superior user experience.
