Business Development Executive

Business Development Executive | Nottingham | £32,000 basic + bonus | Free parking | Existing accounts and new business. Great on the phone, but want to own your customer relationships instead of just chasing leads?

If you're currently in telesales, inside sales, account handling or business development and want a role where your work visibly helps a business grow, this could be your next move. We're particularly interested in people who sell products to trade customers.

Our client is a fast-growing, well-established food and drink supplier based in Nottingham. With a growing customer base and an expanding range, there's always something new to talk about.

You'll look after and grow an existing customer base while also bringing in new business, with a sales team behind you to help take opportunities over the line.

The Role

This is a hands-on, commercial role rather than order-taking. You'll build real relationships with your customers and have clear targets so you always know what good looks like.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Growing your accounts - Building relationships with existing customers and finding ways to increase orders
• Bringing customers back - Re-engaging accounts that have gone quiet
• Winning new business - Researching prospects and starting conversations with the right people
• Working with the wider team - Setting up meetings and opportunities for colleagues to progress

About You

We're keen to hear from confident, commercially minded people who enjoy talking to customers. You might currently be working as a Telesales Executive, Inside Sales Executive, Account Handler, Business Development Representative or Trade Sales Advisor, or in a similar customer-facing sales role.

You'll bring:

• A confident, professional phone manner
• Proven evidence of generating sales or opportunities
• Experience working towards targets
• Good CRM and IT skills
• Experience in food, wholesale, FMCG or hospitality is a bonus, but not essential

If you can build rapport and turn conversations into orders, you can learn the products.

The Package

• £32,000 basic salary
• Bonus incentives on top
• Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, with no weekends
• Free on-site parking
• Join a growing business with room to develop

Ready for a Sales Role With Real Ownership?

If you're good at building relationships and want a role where what you do makes a visible difference, this could be the move. You'd be joining a business that's growing, with a customer base to build on and a team to support you.

A strong basic, a bonus that rewards your results and a proper finish at 5pm.
