Business Development Manager London & Surrounding Areas Up to £65,000 Bonus Hybrid Working

We're partnering with a multi-award-winning, nationwide provider of mechanical and electrical building services maintenance to find a driven and ambitious Business Development Manager. With over 34 years of experience across the corporate, healthcare, education, retail, transport, and manufacturing sectors, this business has built a strong reputation for delivering compliant, safe, and efficient FM solutions - and they're now looking for the right Business Development Manager to help them grow it further.

The Role

As Business Development Manager, you'll be the driving force behind identifying and converting new business opportunities across the M&E maintenance sector. This isn't a role for someone who wants to manage existing accounts from behind a desk - this is about getting out there, starting new conversations, and building relationships that turn into long-term partnerships.

You'll sit within a wider Sales and Commercial team that includes a tender writing and pricing function, so you'll have internal support behind you. Whether you're mapping out strategic opportunities across key UK geographies or walking the floor at an industry event, you'll be given the tools, the autonomy, and the backing to perform.

Key Responsibilities

Identify and pursue new business opportunities across the M&E and FM maintenance sectors
Develop and execute strategic business development plans aligned to company growth targets
Build and nurture relationships with new and prospective clients, offering tailored solutions to their needs
Conduct market research to stay ahead of trends, competitors, and emerging opportunities
Prepare and deliver compelling proposals and client presentations
Collaborate with the wider Sales and Commercial team to map out strategic opportunities across key UK geographies
Represent the business at industry events, trade shows, and networking functions
Track and report on sales activity and pipeline performance
Feed market intelligence back to the wider business to shape service and strategy

What We're Looking For

The client is open on sector background - if you've come from construction, commercial property, or even a completely different industry, that's fine. What matters is that you're a natural relationship builder with a genuine drive to win new business. The current high-performing BDM came from a medical background, so there's no box to tick here.

The ideal Business Development Manager will be:

Proven in a business development or sales role with a track record of winning new clients
Energetic, proactive, and genuinely excited about getting in front of new people
A strong communicator with confident negotiation and presentation skills
Comfortable working independently and managing your own diary
Proficient in CRM systems and Microsoft Office
Results-focused with a real hunger to hit and exceed targetsExperience in M&E or FM is advantageous but not essential - a willingness to learn the market is all they ask.

What's on Offer

Salary up to £65,000 depending on experience
Performance-based bonus scheme
Company car allowance
Hybrid working — 1–2 days in the office, the rest client-facing or remote
25 days annual leave plus 360 Wellbeing benefits
Genuine career progression within a growing Sales and Commercial team
Collaborative, ambitious team culture — no dinosaurs, no going through the motions
