RAW Services is looking for an ambitious, confident and driven Junior Business Development Manager to join our growing commercial team.
This isn’t a role for someone who wants to sit behind a desk waiting for leads to come in.
We’re looking for someone who can pick up the phone, start conversations, get through doors and build relationships.
You’ll need the gift of the gab, plenty of confidence and the ability to sell. Put simply, we want someone who could sell snow to an Eskimo.
The Role
Your main focus will be generating new commercial business for RAW Services across the South East.
You’ll be actively targeting businesses, facilities management companies, property managers, managing agents, construction companies and other commercial organisations that require our services.
You’ll work closely with our Contracts Manager, helping turn new opportunities into long-term commercial clients while also developing and growing relationships with our existing customer base.
Day to day, you’ll be:
- Prospecting and identifying new commercial clients
- Making outbound calls and introducing RAW Services
- Getting in front of decision-makers
- Booking meetings and site visits
- Following up leads, quotes and opportunities
- Building relationships with facilities managers, property managers and commercial clients
- Identifying opportunities within existing accounts
- Working closely with the Contracts Manager to develop new contracts
- Helping secure reactive, planned maintenance and PPM work
- Keeping on top of prospects and maintaining a healthy sales pipeline
- Representing RAW Services professionally at client meetings and networking opportunities
Who We Want
You don't necessarily need years of business development experience.
You do need sales experience and you need to know how to sell.
We’re looking for someone who is:
- Extremely confident speaking to new people
- Naturally persuasive
- Comfortable making outbound sales calls
- Hungry to win new business
- Persistent without being pushy
- Good at building genuine relationships
- Commercially minded
- Organised and able to manage a pipeline
- Comfortable speaking with everyone from site managers to company directors
- Motivated by targets and results
Experience selling into commercial businesses would be advantageous, but attitude and natural sales ability are more important to us.
