Business Development Executive - Insurance / Legal / Real Estate - London / Home Counties - £50k basic - c£78k OTE & car allowance
We are on the hunt for a business-savvy, ambitious and results-driven Business Development Executive, with a demonstrable track record of achieving new business sales (ideally selling services to the commercial real estate market, legal sector or lenders), to join an expanding international organisation with offices in London.
Servicing a client-base in London and the Home Counties, this will be a remote-working role but with substantial travelling, therefore suitable candidates will live in the South East (London, Herts, Essex, Kent, Middlesex, Surrey or Berkshire ideally), own a car (car allowance included) and be able to travel regularly to client meetings and networking events. Initially, this role will be office-based during the probation period, before converting to a remote-first role.
