Business Development Manager

Job description

Business Development Manager

Remote-first | Full Team Support | Performance-led

Are you a commercially driven BDM who wants the freedom of remote working without losing structure, coaching, and momentum?

We’re looking for a Business Development Manager to join our growing direct marketing agency, offering the best of both worlds: autonomy, accountability, and daily connection with a high-performing team.

About the Role

We’re a data-led direct marketing agency delivering compliant, results-driven campaigns for ambitious brands. As a BDM, you’ll be responsible for generating new business, managing a healthy pipeline, and converting opportunities into long-term client relationships.

This is a predominantly remote role, designed to keep you supported and connected. You’ll take part in daily morning team video calls, have instant access to colleagues and leadership, and attend a monthly in-person team day in Chelmsford or London.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Proactively identifying and developing new business opportunities
• Running outbound activity and lead qualification within agreed processes
• Building and managing a high-converting sales pipeline
• Delivering confident, value-led sales conversations and presentations
• Negotiating and closing deals in a structured, compliant environment
• Working closely with internal teams to ensure smooth campaign delivery
• Contributing ideas and energy to a growing, performance-led agency

About You

You’re a consistent, coachable sales professional who enjoys winning - and doing things properly.

You’ll bring:

• 3+ years’ experience in B2B business development (marketing, media, or services ideal)
• Confidence with outbound sales and pipeline management
• Comfort working to clear activity and revenue targets
• A structured approach to selling, including processes, and feedback
• The ability to work autonomously while staying fully engaged with a team

Why Join Us?

We’ve recently been recognised with the Culture100 Award for 2025, and we’re proud of the environment we’ve built.

You’ll benefit from:

• £28,000–£30,000 basic salary (DOE)
• Uncapped commission with a realistic £40,000–£60,000+ OTE
• Flexible working hours (25–40 hours per week, Mon–Fri, 8am–6pm)
• Remote-first working with structured support and monthly in-person days
• Daily team video calls and collaborative tools
• Uncapped annual leave after probation
• A culture that values performance, consistency, and accountability over just presence

Remote doesn’t mean distant here - it means trusted, supported, and set up to succeed.
