Senior Business Development Representative (BDR)
Structured Pathway to Business Development Manager
£37,000-£38,000 Basic + Bonus
Working Hours:
Monday to Thursday 8:00am-4:30pm | Friday 7:30am-4:00pm
Are you a high-performing Business Development Representative, SDR, Lead Generator or Appointment Setter looking for the next step in your sales career? Do you want to work for a growing business that offers genuine progression, structured development and a clear pathway into a Business Development Manager role? We're recruiting for an ambitious and expanding organisation that works with clients across a broad range of sectors, helping them improve operational performance, increase efficiency and achieve key business objectives.
This is not a standard BDR role.
The business has developed a clear and structured two-year progression plan designed to bridge the gap between Business Development and Business Development Management. Rather than being expected to make an immediate jump into a closing role, you'll have the opportunity to build the commercial, consultative and strategic skills needed to become a successful Business Development Manager.
The Opportunity
Over the next two years, you'll continue to excel in opportunity generation while gaining hands-on exposure to the full sales cycle.
- Work closely with experienced Business Development Managers
- Shadow customer meetings, site visits, solution presentations and commercial discussions
- Develop advanced discovery, qualification and opportunity management skills

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
