About the Role
We are looking for a highly motivated individual to join a prestigious automotive brand as a Local Business Development Manager (LBDM) within my client's corporate and fleet team.
This is an exciting opportunity to build a pipeline from the ground up.
While full brand-accredited training and a strong support network will be provided, success in this role depends on your initiative, resilience, and drive to generate opportunities from scratch.

Key Responsibilities
Proactively generate new business opportunities with SMEs, corporates, and leasing companies - primarily through cold calling and cold outreach.
Build and expand long-term partnerships to maximise fleet sales.
Create tailored proposals to suit client needs, ensuring exceptional service throughout.
Collaborate with corporate and fleet teams to ensure a smooth handover process for clients.
Analyse the local marketplace, identify opportunities, and implement strategies to increase market share.
Report regularly on pipeline, progress, and performance against agreed targets.
About You
We welcome candidates from both inside and outside the motor trade. What matters most is your attitude and track record in business development. You will be:
Proven in sales: Demonstrated success in cold-calling and generating new business opportunities.
Resilient and self-motivated: Able to thrive in a target-driven, outbound sales role.
Commercially minded: Quick to identify profitable opportunities in the local market.
Relationship-focused: Confident in building long-term client partnerships.
Results-driven: Determined to exceed sales targets and deliver outstanding customer satisfaction.
Why Join?
Work with a prestige automotive brand that carries strong appeal in the corporate market.
Receive fantastic brand-accredited training and ongoing support.
Benefit from uncapped earning potential with clear opportunities for growth.
Enjoy the use of a company car and fuel card to support your success on the road.
Be recognised and rewarded for your initiative, resilience, and results.
