This role will suit somebody with a proven track record in developing strong relationships and building and converting a sales pipeline of high value commercial contracts and strategic partnerships, ideally within a startup environment.

Who Infinity are looking for.

Infinity is looking for an experienced Head of Business Development, who can work both strategically, as well as happily rolling their sleeves up to help build this incredible business.

You’ll have a proven track record of creating new sales pipelines and customer accounts, ideally within a start-up, as well as significant experience of securing and managing high-value commercial contracts and strategic partnerships, in the defence or Aerospace sectors.

They’re also looking for.

Excellent communication skills, strong leadership capability, highly developed organisational, prioritisation, and decision-making skills.
Willingness to work flexibly, across multiple locations, and to travel internationally as required meet with stakeholders, partners and deliver programmes.

** Please note, this position will be employed by Infinity and not MTC. Infinity is a joint venture with Infinity, MTC, Loughborough University, and University of Derby.

Due to the nature of our business, all employment is subject to satisfactory references being obtained alongside a level of security clearance checks.

The Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) was established in 2010 as an independent Research & Technology Organisation (RTO) with the objective of bridging the gap between academia and industry – often referred to as ‘the valley of death’.

It represents one of the largest public sector investments in UK manufacturing and, after four years of planning and a 16 month build, the facility opened at Ansty Park in Coventry at the end of 2011.

In December 2011, there were 16 industrial members, 44 staff and just a few key pieces of equipment in the ‘workshop’.

Over the following seven years the MTC’s rapid growth has seen the expansion of our campus with the construction of three more facilities, including the opening of the Advanced Manufacturing Training Centre and the National Centre for Additive Manufacturing.

Our role has also increased to cover not only R&D but also Training, Advanced Manufacturing Management and Factory Design.

We now have over 700 talented employees working with us.

During this time we have helped hundreds of companies across a range of industries and over 100 of them have become members of the MTC.
