Description
Business Development Manager – Water Consultancy Services
Home Based | South of England Preferred | Excellent Salary + Bonus
Who we are
Established in 1994, Building Monitoring Services (BMS) is a trusted compliance partner specialising in Legionella control, indoor air quality monitoring and closed water system management. Founded on the principle that clients deserve independent, expert advice without sales agendas or hidden incentives, we provide clear, evidence-led reporting that helps organisations manage safety, governance and building performance with confidence.
Part of the Celnor Group
Celnor Group is a UK-based environmental services group operating across the Testing, Inspection, Certification and Compliance (TICC) landscape. With a growing portfolio of specialist businesses, Celnor provides essential services that protect people, property and the environment.
While each business retains its own identity, culture and technical specialism, all are supported by a central group function that invests in people, systems and long-term sustainable growth.
Job details
We're looking for a driven, commercially focused Business Development Manager to join a growing consultancy business specialising in water hygiene, Legionella risk management and environmental compliance. While we're ideally seeking someone based across London, the Home Counties or the South of England, we're open to exceptional candidates from elsewhere in the UK who bring the right industry experience and network.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
