Business Development Representative

Business Development Executive / BDR

City of London | £42,500-£50,000 Base + 5% Uncapped Commission | OTE £110,000-£130,000 | 5 Days Office-Based

Already performing well in outbound sales but looking for significantly greater earning potential?

We're partnering with a fast-growing specialist consultancy based in the heart of the City to hire an ambitious Business Development Executive to join its growing commercial team.

This is a genuine new-business role for someone with around 1-2 years' sales experience who enjoys creating opportunities. You'll be identifying prospective clients, getting senior decision-makers on the phone and turning initial conversations into qualified meetings for the wider Business Development team.

The earning potential is a major part of the opportunity: a £42,500-£50,000 base salary plus 5% uncapped commission, with OTE of approximately £110,000-£130,000.

This is a fully office-based role, working five days per week from their City of London offices.

The Role

• Run targeted outbound campaigns to generate new business opportunities.
• Make high volumes of outbound calls and confidently engage prospective clients.
• Use telephone, email and LinkedIn to build and develop a strong pipeline.
• Research target businesses and identify the right senior decision-makers to approach.
• Build rapport quickly, create interest and convert conversations into qualified meetings.
• Take ownership of follow-up, ensuring opportunities continue to move forward.
• Work towards and exceed weekly and monthly activity and meeting targets.
• Maintain an accurate and well-managed pipeline through the CRM.
• Work closely with Business Development and Marketing to refine targeting and messaging.

About You

You'll ideally have around 1-2 years' experience within a BDR, SDR, Business Development Executive or similar outbound B2B sales role.

Sector experience is flexible. We're particularly interested in people coming from professional services, consultancy, SaaS/technology, fintech, financial services, business intelligence, recruitment or another target-driven B2B environment.

You'll be:

• Confident and credible on the phone, including cold calling.
• Comfortable creating opportunities from scratch rather than relying on inbound leads.
• Articulate and able to engage senior business decision-makers.
• Resilient, persistent and able to maintain momentum when faced with rejection.
• Commercially minded and naturally good at building rapport.
• Target-driven and motivated by both results and earning potential.
• Disciplined with follow-up and pipeline management.
• Ambitious and keen to develop your longer-term career in business development.

You don't need previous experience within the consultancy's specialist field – they can teach you the technical side. What matters is your sales ability, resilience, drive and appetite to succeed.

Package

• £42,500-£50,000 base salary
• OTE circa £110,000-£130,000
• 5% uncapped commission
• Private medical, pension, life assurance and income protection
• Additional flexible benefits, volunteering days and birthday leave

For someone early in their sales career who is already delivering results, this is an opportunity to join a growing, ambitious business where performance is genuinely rewarded and your earning potential isn't capped.
