Business Development Executive
Select Recruitment Specialists Ltd
Fancy joining a business where "family feel" isn't just a buzzword on the careers page - it's free lunch every day, a fridge stocked to the brim, and colleagues who genuinely have your back?
Are you a natural hunter who gets a buzz from turning a cold prospect into a warm opportunity - and fancy doing it somewhere that actually invests in ambitious growth plans rather than just talking about them?
We're recruiting exclusively and confidentially on behalf of an established, fast-growing Norfolk business with big plans for the next chapter - and this role sits right at the heart of them.
This is a genuine new business hunting role, not account management. You'll be identifying opportunities, opening conversations with senior decision-makers, and building a consistent pipeline of qualified projects for the sales team to close.
What you'll be doing:
- Using buyer intent data, market research, LinkedIn, Cognism and HubSpot to spot organisations planning projects where the business can add value
- Making outbound calls and building relationships with Facilities Directors, Estates Managers, Property Directors, Procurement teams, Contractors and Architects
- Qualifying prospects and securing introductory meetings for the sales team
- Keeping CRM records sharp and building intelligence on target accounts
- Working closely with a close-knit, four-strong sales team and marketing to make sure outbound activity hits the right targets with the right message
What they're looking for:
- Proven success in a proactive business development, outbound sales or lead generation role
- A genuine hunter mentality - curious, persistent, and comfortable picking up the phone to senior people
- Resilience and the ability to keep momentum going when faced with objections
- Experience with CRM systems (HubSpot ideal)
- Someone who wants to be part of a team, not just a number
What's in it for you:
- £30,000-£35,000 basic (negotiable for the right person)
- 20 days holiday + your birthday off + bank holidays
- Standard auto-enrolment pension
- Office-based, Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm
- A genuinely warm, supportive culture - one of those rare places where people actually mean it when they say "it's not just about the money" - free lunch daily, a fully stocked fridge, and a team that cares
This one won't be around long - if this sounds like your kind of place, get in touch.
