You can expect to be presented with a few existing customer accounts initially but the focus will be firmly on proactive sales pipeline development leading to significant client acquisition. You can expect relatively modest targets for the remainder of this year as this is a territory which has not historically received much direct attention but we want a robust pipeline developed to yield significant results in the next couple of years (aiming for £2M+ regional turnover by 2027). You will be predominantly territory based, focused on delivering the highest levels of service to our customers. This role is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing business where you will be a key member of a small dedicated sales team. You will thrive in a proactive new business development role identifying your own prospects and undertaking lead generation to target and convert new customers. You ll present to customers, make recommendations, prepare proposals/quotations and close deals to ensure smooth on boarding of new clients. This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated sales professional who thrives on securing new business and who recognises the opportunity to transform an underdeveloped region. You can expect to be involved in fronting an array of different technical projects, designing the best solutions for customers whereby average lead times often exceed 6-months (higher for larger value prospects/projects). We service many MOD/military, aerospace and space-sector clients but can also support an array of wider industrial end user customers with their needs. So, there is endless scope for development across the Midlands. Business Development Manager Key Responsibilities Develop and implement a sales plan for the allocated territory. Generate territory growth in line with agreed commercial targets. Consultative/Technical Sales: Use a consultative approach to analyse and solve customer problems, presenting tailored solutions and commercially viable proposals. Customer Relationships: Build trusted advisor relationships with key stakeholders and decision-makers.

Assess and prioritise sales opportunities based on market potential, client needs, and margin targets. Negotiate commercial terms to maximise profitability. Develop best practices for acquiring, retaining, and nurturing accounts. Lead solution development efforts to address customer needs, coordinating with colleagues for seamless delivery. Maintain exceptional standards of customer service. Foster relationships with key decision-makers to identify cross-selling and upselling opportunities. Work with internal teams to ensure customer satisfaction and resolve issues. Maintain high standards of sales administration. Utilise CRM systems to follow up on leads and quotations. Showcase additional products and solutions within the group. What you will bring Our business enjoys a track record of stable and committed staff, so we are really looking for loyal, engaged, and self-motivated individuals to join an already highly successful team. You will have a minimum of two years experience in occupying a similar technical territory/field-based sales role and really excel when you are customer facing. You will also have demonstrable experience in targeting, acquiring and winning orders from new customers. Prior packaging-sales experience is of particular interest to us, but we are open minded to considering individuals who can genuinely demonstrate a strong track record of sales achievement within closely affiliated sectors (selling a technical product offering/solution to similar end user verticals). The successful applicant will also meet the following criteria At least two years experience in a client acquisition-focused field sales role, with a track record of success in securing new business. Strong presentation, customer-facing, and influencing skills A background in selling technical solutions, dealing with engineers, designers as well as buyers Excellent commercial acumen and problem-solving abilities Full valid UK driving license Residing on patch within the wider Midlands region (ideally above the M4 corridor but below M54).

The Business Development Manager Role Barum & Dewar are part of the Macfarlane Packaging Group having joined in 2023. As part of our continued growth plans, we are seeking to hire a Business Development Manager who can grow our presence in the wider Midlands region. You can expect to be presented with a few existing customer accounts initially but the focus will be firmly on proactive sales pipeline development leading to significant client acquisition. You can expect relatively modest targets for the remainder of this year as this is a territory which has not historically received much direct attention but we want a robust pipeline developed to yield significant results in the next couple of years (aiming for £2M+ regional turnover by 2027). You will be predominantly territory based, focused on delivering the highest levels of service to our customers. This role is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing business where you will be a key member of a small dedicated sales team. You will thrive in a proactive new business development role identifying your own prospects and undertaking lead generation to target and convert new customers. You ll present to customers, make recommendations, prepare proposals/quotations and close deals to ensure smooth on boarding of new clients. This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated sales professional who thrives on securing new business and who recognises the opportunity to transform an underdeveloped region. You can expect to be involved in fronting an array of different technical projects, designing the best solutions for customers whereby average lead times often exceed 6-months (higher for larger value prospects/projects). We service many MOD/military, aerospace and space-sector clients but can also support an array of wider industrial end user customers with their needs. So, there is endless scope for development across the Midlands. Business Development Manager Key Responsibilities Develop and implement a sales plan for the allocated territory. Generate territory growth in line with agreed commercial targets. Consultative/Technical Sales: Use a consultative approach to analyse and solve customer problems, presenting tailored solutions and commercially viable proposals. Customer Relationships: Build trusted advisor relationships with key stakeholders and decision-makers. Execute customer acquisition strategies to expand the customer base without compromising margins. Assess and prioritise sales opportunities based on market potential, client needs, and margin targets. Negotiate commercial terms to maximise profitability. Develop best practices for acquiring, retaining, and nurturing accounts. Lead solution development efforts to address customer needs, coordinating with colleagues for seamless delivery. Maintain exceptional standards of customer service. Foster relationships with key decision-makers to identify cross-selling and upselling opportunities. Work with internal teams to ensure customer satisfaction and resolve issues. Maintain high standards of sales administration. Utilise CRM systems to follow up on leads and quotations. Showcase additional products and solutions within the group. What you will bring Our business enjoys a track record of stable and committed staff, so we are really looking for loyal, engaged, and self-motivated individuals to join an already highly successful team. You will have a minimum of two years experience in occupying a similar technical territory/field-based sales role and really excel when you are customer facing. You will also have demonstrable experience in targeting, acquiring and winning orders from new customers. Prior packaging-sales experience is of particular interest to us, but we are open minded to considering individuals who can genuinely demonstrate a strong track record of sales achievement within closely affiliated sectors (selling a technical product offering/solution to similar end user verticals). The successful applicant will also meet the following criteria At least two years experience in a client acquisition-focused field sales role, with a track record of success in securing new business. Strong presentation, customer-facing, and influencing skills A background in selling technical solutions, dealing with engineers, designers as well as buyers Excellent commercial acumen and problem-solving abilities Full valid UK driving license Residing on patch within the wider Midlands region (ideally above the M4 corridor but below M54).
