Business Development Executive

GOOD ON THE PHONE? LIKE WINNING BUSINESS WITHOUT LIVING ON THE M25?

An established UK business is hiring a Business Development Executive to join a busy, office-based sales team in Chichester.

This is a proper sales role. Phones on. Conversations had. Deals closed. No pointless travel. No "thought leadership". Just selling.

The Role

• Predominantly outbound B2B telephone sales, with some inbound leads
• Managing a large portfolio of customers while winning new business
• Understanding customer requirements and cross-selling multiple product lines
• Quoting, follow-up, closing - rinse and repeat
• Using CRM properly (not just ticking boxes)
• Monthly revenue target of £50k-£60k (no micromanaged KPIs)

Sales cycles range from same day wins to longer-term opportunities - depends on the deal, not a script.

You can use LinkedIn, email and other outreach methods, but the phone is king here.

What You'll Need

• B2B or telesales experience
• Confidence speaking to decision-makers
• Commercial awareness and the ability to listen, not just talk
• Strong organisation and follow-through
• A thick enough skin to enjoy outbound sales without drama

OEM / manufacturing exposure and CRM experience are helpful, not deal-breakers.

The Package

• £34,000 base salary
• Bonus scheme currently being finalised
• Office-based, Monday-Friday
• On-site parking
• No travel
• Clear progression opportunities

The Important Bits

• Role is based in Chichester
• No remote / hybrid option
• One-stage interview process
• The team wants someone who sticks - not a CV collector or a "let's see how it goes" hire

If you like selling, don't mind picking up the phone, and want a role that rewards effort rather than noise, this one's worth a look.
