Business Development Manager - Europe
Data Centre Fibre Connectivity Solutions - UK/DACH/Nordics
Up to £/€120,000 basic + bonus
Remote
Are you a commercially driven business development professional with experience in fibre connectivity, data centre infrastructure, structured cabling, telecoms or network solutions?
This is a rare opportunity to join a global cable manufacturer at an exciting stage of growth and help establish its position within the rapidly expanding European data centre market.
Our client is looking for an entrepreneurial sales professional to lead the development of its data centre fibre cabling business across Europe. This is not a commodity cable sales role. The focus is on developing strategic relationships with data centre operators, contractors, installers, system integrators and channel partners while introducing a portfolio of high-performance fibre optic solutions.
With significant European manufacturing capability, strong supply chain infrastructure and the ability to support large-scale projects, the business is investing heavily in growing its presence within the data centre sector.

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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Connectorised fibre solutions
- Pre-terminated assemblies
- Data centre connectivity infrastructure
- Custom fibre optic solutions
This is a true market development role where you will identify opportunities, engage key decision makers, support specification activity and establish long-term partnerships across the European data centre ecosystem.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and execute a European market development strategy
- Build relationships with data centre operators and owners
- Engage contractors, installers and integrators involved in data centre projects
- Establish and develop channel and distribution partnerships where appropriate
