Business Development Executive

Business Development Executive

£32,000 + £6,000 OTE (pro rata)
6-Month Fixed-Term Contract | Predominantly Home-Based

We’re recruiting a confident Business Development Executive for an established business within the commercial furniture and workplace sector.

You’ll follow up existing marketing and lead-generation activity, researching businesses that are relocating, refurbishing or changing their workplace and identifying where there is a genuine requirement for new office furniture.

This is a quality-focused B2B role. The aim isn’t simply to book appointments – it’s to have credible conversations with decision-makers, understand their plans and identify genuine commercial opportunities.

The Role

• Research prospects and identify key decision-makers.
• Contact businesses by phone and email.
• Understand workplace plans, timescales and potential furniture requirements.
• Qualify genuine current and future opportunities.
• Secure appropriate meetings or site surveys.
• Develop longer-term opportunities that may be 6–18+ months away.
• Maintain accurate CRM records and follow-up activity.

About You

You’ll be confident picking up the phone and comfortable speaking with business owners and senior decision-makers.

You’ll be articulate, commercially aware, inquisitive, organised and persistent without being pushy.

Previous B2B business development, outbound sales or appointment-setting experience is preferred. Experience in commercial furniture, interiors, fit-out, workplace solutions or another project-led B2B sector would be particularly relevant.
