London / Netherlands | Recruitment & Technology Solutions | Business Development
Templeton & Partners is looking for a Business Development Manager for Netherlands to help grow our presence across the Dutch market. This is a role focused on landing and expanding enterprise clients, with the backing of an established international business, local infrastructure, and a strong delivery team.
You will be based in London, with regular travel to the Netherlands, taking ownership of developing new enterprise relationships while also re-engaging and expanding opportunities across our existing and previous client base. We already have an established Dutch BV, local office, the required recruitment licence, existing and previous clients, and a strong delivery capability, meaning you will be joining a market where much of the infrastructure is already in place and the focus can be firmly on commercial growth.
What you’ll be doing:
- Develop and execute a clear business development strategy for the Dutch market
- Identify, engage, and win new enterprise clients
- Re-engage previous clients and identify opportunities to rebuild and expand those relationships
- Build senior relationships across technology, procurement, HR, and business leadership functions
- Expand existing client relationships across business units, technology areas, and hiring needs
- Work closely with our delivery team to convert opportunities into successful assignments
- Build account plans and maintain a strong pipeline of target organisations
- Identify opportunities across both recruitment and broader technology solutions
- Travel regularly to the Netherlands for client meetings, market development, and relationship building
- Maintain strong CRM discipline and use data, automation, and AI tools to support business development activity
- Work closely with the wider international leadership and commercial teams to identify cross-border opportunities

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we’re looking for:
- Strong business development experience within recruitment, staffing, technology services, or a similar B2B environment
- A proven track record of winning and developing enterprise clients
- Strong relationship-building and stakeholder management skills
- A proactive and commercially driven approach to new business
- The ability to develop a market strategically rather than relying purely on high-volume sales activity
- Confidence engaging with senior decision-makers
- The ability to work effectively with delivery teams to turn commercial opportunities into long-term accounts
- Experience within the Dutch market, or an established network in the Netherlands, would be a significant advantage.
