New Business Development Manager (Part Time)
Role Overview
As we grow our business development function, we are seeking an experienced, results-driven sales professional to join Nu Xform as a New Business Development Manager. This is a part-time role built for flexibility, ideal for someone with a proven sales background who wants hours that work around school runs and other commitments, and who is looking to grow with a business at an early, fast-moving stage.
You'll take ownership of direct outreach, relationship building, and pipeline growth across Higher Education & Healthcare Estates and Corporate Workplace sectors, working closely with our senior consultants. There is plenty of growth potential for the right individual, with a clear path to Account Manager or Senior Business Development Manager, and the opportunity to build and lead a team as your book of business grows.
At Nu Xform, we are an agile, fast-growing Independent SMaRT and Building Intelligence Advisory firm. We specialize in delivering complete technical and strategic consultancy services that create strategically governed, measurable, adaptive, real-time intelligent building operations.
What We are Looking For
You'll bring proven experience in a sales or business development role, ideally B2B, along with the confidence and track record to build relationships from a standing start. An interest in the higher education, healthcare, or corporate sectors is a genuine plus, as is curiosity about how organizations manage their buildings and estates.
But most importantly, you should possess the ability to:
- Drive market development, identifying and pursuing emerging opportunities across higher education, healthcare, and corporate sectors.
- Build and own relationships with prospective clients, from first contact through to qualified opportunities ready for senior consultants to close.
- Lead sales and business development activity, from research and direct outreach to CRM discipline and meeting coordination.

Your Role and Responsibilities
Working closely with our senior team, and with real ownership of your own patch, you will:
- Research and Prospect: Identify target organizations and decision-makers across higher education, healthcare, and corporate estates, and build your own target list.
- Own Outreach: Run direct outreach via LinkedIn, calls, and email, building Nu Xform's pipeline of opportunities day in, day out.
- Qualify Opportunities: Assess prospective client fit and readiness, and bring strong leads to senior consultants ready to progress.
- Coordinate Meetings: Schedule and help prepare discovery meetings and client pitches, keeping momentum in every conversation.
- Own the CRM: Log activity daily and manage tasks and follow-ups in the CRM, keeping records accurate for clear reporting on pipeline activity.
- Represent Nu Xform: Potential to attend industry events, build relationships with the community we're targeting, and help share content that raises Nu Xform's profile.
What You Bring
- Sales Experience: A proven track record in sales or business development, ideally B2B; you've done this before and know what good outreach looks like.
- Communication Skills: A confident, clear communicator, comfortable reaching out to new contacts by phone, email, and LinkedIn, and building relationships within a community over time.
- Organization: A detailed, disciplined approach, using a CRM daily to manage your pipeline, tasks, and follow-ups without needing to be chased.
- Results Orientation: A hungry, self-motivated approach, willing to put in the hard yards to build relationships and hit targets, working independently within a flexible, part-time schedule.
- Growth Mindset: Genuine interest in education and healthcare estates and corporate workplace sectors, willingness to learn our proposition, and ambition to progress toward Account Manager or Senior Business Development Manager as your book of business grows.
