Job Description

Business Development Manager – Mission Critical Software

£70–80,000 basic salary + bonus + company car
UK-based | Remote working | North West office (1 day per week)

What if you could combine complex solution selling, public sector engagement and mission-critical technology in a role with genuine autonomy and growth potential?

I’m working with a globally recognised technology business that delivers command, control and communications software into mission-critical environments, supporting organisations where resilience, response time and operational visibility are critical.

The business already has an established presence within Fire & Rescue services across the UK and is now looking to hire a commercially driven BDM to grow this vertical further, while also expanding into adjacent sectors such as Transport, Airports, Police and wider public-sector environments.

This is a genuine hunter role focused on identifying, developing and winning opportunities through a combination of direct engagement, framework routes and formal public-sector tenders.

The Opportunity

The company is already active within this space, with live tender opportunities and an established reputation within mission-critical communications environments.

The successful individual will be responsible for:

  * Developing relationships with Fire & Rescue services and local authorities

  * Identifying and converting new public-sector opportunities

  * Managing tender and framework-led sales processes

  * Driving growth across additional verticals including Transport, Airports and Policing

  * Positioning technically credible command-and-control solutions within operational environments

This is not a transactional software sale. The role requires someone capable of operating consultatively, understanding operational workflows and building credibility with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

The Person

You will be a commercially strong, proactive business developer with experience selling complex technical solutions into public-sector or regulated environments.

Ideally, you will have exposure to:

  * Fire & Rescue

  * Emergency Services

  * Public Safety

  * Control Room / Command & Control environments

  * Telecommunications or mission-critical communications

However, the business is also open to candidates from adjacent sectors, provided you have experience of navigating public-sector tenders and engaging with technically complex customer environments.

You must be technically credible and comfortable discussing areas such as:

  * Telecommunications infrastructure

  * Servers and switching environments

  * Networks and operational systems integration

The role requires someone capable of building trust with operational stakeholders, understanding customer requirements and translating technical capability into commercial value.

Why Join?

  * Globally recognised technology business

  * High-autonomy environment with strong support

  * Genuine opportunity to shape and grow a vertical

  * Existing customer base and active tenders already in play

  * Opportunity to progress as the UK operation continues to grow

  * Flexible, remote-first culture with UK-wide reach

If you have experience selling technically complex solutions into public-sector or mission-critical environments and are looking for a role with autonomy, growth potential and genuine market opportunity - let’s have a conversation.
