Wild Capital Business Development Manager
Wild Capital is looking for an ambitious Business Development Manager to help scale its commercial activity across property development, planning, land, infrastructure, and environmental compliance.
This is a new business and account growth role for someone who enjoys opening doors, building relationships, understanding complex client needs, and converting opportunities into long-term commercial partnerships.
The business operates in a highly active, regulation-led market where developers and landowners increasingly need practical commercial solutions to unlock planning, manage environmental obligations, and deliver projects with confidence.
You do not need to be an environmental markets expert from day one. What matters most is strong B2B sales ability, commercial curiosity, confidence with senior stakeholders, and the drive to master a technical but rapidly growing sector.
What you’ll be doing
You will be responsible for originating, developing, and closing commercial opportunities across the property, planning, infrastructure, and environmental sectors.
Your role will include:
- Building a strong pipeline through outbound prospecting, referrals, inbound follow-up, and market intelligence
- Speaking with developers, land agents, planning consultants, local authorities, and senior commercial decision-makers
- Understanding client requirements around planning, environmental compliance, pricing, timing, and supply
- Converting opportunities into signed deals
- Growing accounts after the first transaction and identifying repeat business opportunities
- Tracking planning pipelines, competitor activity, regulatory change, and market demand
- Working closely with internal technical, finance, planning, and delivery teams to structure commercially viable solutions
- Acting as the voice of the customer as the business continues to grow
