Business Development Manager, Property Sourcing

Our client is a market leading property investment agent, who have become pioneers in the industry since opening up their doors 10 years ago. They have an amazing opportunity for a high calibre Business Development Manager, who is ready to make their mark within the property investment sector, based within their team in central Manchester. They are looking for a well-connected deal-maker, to grow their pipeline of off-market property opportunities. This is a key hire within their property sourcing team - someone who thrives on building relationships and bringing new business on. Your main mission?

• Lead business development initiatives to identify and secure premium investment opportunities for their clients.
• Building and maintaining strong, long-term relationships with developers and agents
• Negotiating and closing off-market or below-market value deals
• Manage the complete due diligence process ensuring every deal meets exacting quality standards
• Negotiate terms and agreements that deliver exceptional value for all clients
• Collaborate cross-functionally with marketing and operations teams to bring deals from conception to successful launch
• Keeping your pipeline updated and reporting weekly KPIs
• Conduct comprehensive market analysis to identify emerging locations with strong growth potential
• Travelling to meet contacts, mostly across the North and Midlands – although travel further afield may be required.

• Strategic mindset combined with attention to detail and analytical thinking
• Willingness to travel regularly across the Midlands and Northern regions

We’re a fast-moving, investment-led business with big ambitions. You’ll be joining a supportive team that values initiative, celebrates results, and gives you the freedom to make a real impact. What’s on offer….
