Salary: Competitive plus benefits

Location: Oxford Circus, London

BSPS, a successful and growing main contractor based in central London, is looking for an ambitious Business Development Manager with a few years' experience to help grow our client base. You'll be out finding new clients, opening doors and bringing in new work and tender opportunities, and your success will be measured by the clients you bring in and the jobs they lead to.

In this role, you'll:

• Identify and approach new clients across the public and private sectors, building a healthy pipeline of opportunities.
• Source new tenders, frameworks and enquiries, and help decide which ones are worth pursuing.
• Plan and host client entertaining, from lunches and events to site visits, to build lasting relationships.
• Represent BSPS at industry events, networking functions and client meetings.
• Work with colleagues across the company to put together strong tender submissions and presentations.
• Keep the clients you introduce close, so first jobs turn into repeat work.
• Keep an accurate record of leads, contacts and progress, and report regularly to the Chief of Staff.

How you'll be measured:

• The number and quality of new clients you introduce.
• Tender and enquiry opportunities generated from your own sources.
• Contracts won from the clients and opportunities you bring in.
• Repeat work from the relationships you build.

Targets will be agreed with the Chief of Staff and reviewed regularly.
