Business Development Manager

About you
You know print properly. You understand the difference between selling on price and selling on quality, service and capability. You enjoy opening doors, building relationships and winning work through credibility rather than hard selling. You are commercially aware and comfortable speaking to clients about everything from litho print and direct mail through to large format campaigns and digital solutions. If you want to represent a business with a strong reputation, serious production capability and genuine stability behind it, this will suit you.

Your experience
You have experience in print sales or business development within commercial print, large format or digital print. You are comfortable prospecting for new business while also developing existing relationships. You understand litho print, digital print and ideally large format production. Experience within FMCG, POS, retail print or mailing campaigns would be useful. You are confident managing the full sales cycle from first conversation through to closing profitable work. You are organised, self motivated and commercially minded.

What you will be doing with your experience in this role
You will focus on winning and developing new business across the company’s print offering. You will identify opportunities across litho, large format and digital print, building relationships with brands, agencies and print buyers. You will position the business as a high quality print partner capable of delivering everything from FMCG POS campaigns and large format graphics through to short run digital and direct mail solutions. You will work closely with internal production teams to ensure what is sold is delivered properly and profitably. This is a role where you will have the backing of an experienced operation with strong in house capability and investment behind it.
