Key Responsibilities:

  * Pipeline Growth & Strategy: Balance immediate lead generation with long-term strategic planning and pipeline tracking against business goals.

  * Market Research & Targeting: Define "the offer" for varying business lines, map out target accounts, build relationships with key decision-makers, and represent the business at industry events.

  * Framework & Portal Management: Monitor public sector portals (e.g., Find a Tender), manage framework relationships (both direct and via Stepnell Ltd.), and ensure compliance.

  * Bid Support & Intelligence: Gather market intelligence and customer insights to shape win strategies and assist with key framework bid writing.

  * Group Synergy: Collaborate with Head of Group BD, Marketing, and Brand teams to maximise cross-selling, align campaigns, and support wider business growth.

  * Technical BD & Sales Expertise: Proven background in sales and business development strategy.

  * Industry Tools & Systems: Experience with CRM systems, pipeline reporting, and industry tools such as Glenigan, Find a Tender, and public sector portals.

  * Bid & Framework Knowledge: Familiarity with Bid/No-Bid strategies, framework processes, and public sector procurement.

Key Behaviours:

  * Self-Starter: Highly motivated and comfortable working independently across a broad geographic territory.

  * Strong Communicator: Natural networking skills with the confidence to reach out to new customers and build genuine rapport.

  * Team Player: Ability to collaborate effectively across diverse teams, business units, and internal departments.
