With an outstanding reputation across the public sector and an ambitious growth strategy within healthcare, the business is looking to appoint an exceptional Business Development Director to help shape the future of healthcare infrastructure across the UK.

Key responsibilities include:
- Developing strategic relationships across NHS Trusts, ICSs and wider healthcare organisations.
- Identifying future capital investment opportunities before they enter formal procurement.
- Leading client engagement across major healthcare programmes and national frameworks.
- Working alongside senior operational and technical teams to develop compelling client strategies.
- Influencing framework opportunities including major healthcare capital investment programmes.
- Acting as the executive sponsor for key healthcare accounts.
- Supporting bid strategies and helping improve overall win rates.
- Representing the business at industry events, conferences and senior client meetings.
- Providing market intelligence and helping shape future healthcare growth strategy.
This opportunity would suit an experienced client-facing leader who has developed strong relationships within the healthcare sector and understands how major public sector capital projects are secured.
