Business Development & Marketing Executive
Harrisons Private Client Solutions / Stumble
We are looking for an energetic, commercially minded Business Development & Marketing Executive to help us grow our businesses and develop our network of professional and trade relationships.
This isn't a role for someone who simply wants to design social media posts.
We are looking for someone who enjoys speaking to people, building relationships, spotting opportunities and turning ideas into activity.
You don't need to be a marketing guru. You do need to be confident, organised, proactive and comfortable picking up the phone.
The Role
You'll work closely with the business owner to help drive several growing areas of the business, with a particular focus on our specific long term projects, our property-related services and our expanding referral network.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Building and managing our network of contractors, tradespeople and professional partners
- Contacting prospective referral partners and introducing our services
- Following up leads and opportunities
- Maintaining regular contact with existing partners and referral sources
- Helping grow awareness and adoption of Stumble
- Identifying potential new commercial relationships
- Keeping our CRM and referral information organised and up to date
- Coordinating introductions between clients, contractors and professional partners
- Scheduling social media and LinkedIn content
- Helping turn ideas from the wider team into campaigns and activity
- Supporting newsletters, email campaigns and other communications
- Monitoring responses and following up enquiries
- Helping organise events, networking and promotional activity
- Reporting on leads, referrals, activity and results
Who We're Looking For
We're much more interested in attitude and commercial instinct than a long list of marketing qualifications.
You might currently work in sales, recruitment, property, customer service, business development, account management or another role where you've learned how to communicate confidently with people.
You should be someone who:
- Is naturally confident speaking to new people
- Is comfortable making outbound calls
- Enjoys building relationships
- Has a sales mentality without being pushy
- Is organised and follows things through
- Doesn't need to be continually told what to do next
- Can manage several different projects at once
- Is comfortable using social media and digital systems
- Writes clearly and professionally
- Is interested in property and business
- Wants responsibility and the opportunity to develop
What Matters Most
We don't expect you to arrive knowing everything about marketing.
We can provide tools, systems and support with content.
What is much harder to teach is energy, curiosity, confidence and the desire to make things happen.
If you see an opportunity, we want you to pursue it.
If somebody needs following up, we want you to follow them up.
If there's a good business we should be speaking to, we want you to pick up the phone and start the conversation.
The Opportunity
This is an opportunity to become involved in several growing businesses rather than being restricted to one narrow marketing function.
You'll work directly with the people making the decisions and will have genuine scope to influence how Stumble and our wider referral network develop.
For the right person, there is considerable opportunity for the role to grow alongside the businesses.
Pay: £26,000.00-£32,000.00 per year
Work Location: Hybrid remote in Watford WD25
