Business Development Manager - Remote
Clean Energy | Manchester / London / Birmingham
The Opportunity
Our client, a licensed UK clean energy supplier, is expanding its sales team but with a deliberately different profile from the senior Enterprise Sales Directors already in place. Those hires are experienced, well-networked, and strong at developing large, complex opportunities. This role complements them: it's for someone earlier in their career (likely their second or third sales role) who brings energy, ambition, and momentum rather than an existing black book
Company Snapshot
A licensed UK clean energy supplier connecting large industrial and commercial businesses directly with renewable generation, offering contractually guaranteed supply alongside billing, trading, and flexibility services through a proprietary platform.
What You'll Own
- Running a high volume of customer demos and conversations, particularly in your first 100 days
- Using those conversations to surface what's not working with a prospect's current energy supplier, and turning that into a bigger opportunity
- Working within an established sales system, proposition, and technology platform — not building your own process from scratch
- Learning the energy market and proposition quickly, with training provided
- Progressing opportunities with pace, curiosity, and commercial instinct, working alongside more senior Enterprise Sales Directors on the team
What We're Looking For
- Likely in your second or third sales role — ambitious and clearly on an upward trajectory, not necessarily a seasoned senior seller
- Highly coachable, but disciplined enough to work within a structured sales system rather than freelancing your own approach
- Genuine hunger to get in front of a high volume of customers and hold real conversations, not just hit activity numbers for their own sake
- Curious by nature — good at asking questions that get customers talking about what frustrates them
- No energy industry experience required or expected
- Comfortable working toward an ambitious early-days activity target
