Business Development Manager Plant

Job description

Business development Manager– Construction Sector

£2,000 Retainer + Car Allowance + High Commission | Exclusive UK Territory

Mixamate manufactures £280,000 all-in-one concrete batching, mixing and pumping units — designed to give contractors greater programme control, improved margins and independence from traditional ready-mix supply.

We are appointing a field-based capital equipment sales professional to develop the UK market and secure early traction.

This is not a materials sales role.

This is not internal account management.

This is a high-value machinery appointment.

Required Background (Essential)

• Currently active or recently active within the construction plant or capital equipment sector
• 10+ years selling construction plant or heavy equipment
• Proven track record closing £100k+ machinery deals
• Experience negotiating full capital equipment contracts (not aftermarket/service only)
• Direct contractor relationships within groundworks, civil engineering, utilities, housebuilding or plant hire
• Confident conducting site-based demonstrations
• Comfortable managing 3–9 month sales cycles

Applications without direct capital equipment sales experience will not be progressed.

The Role

• Identify and secure early adopter customers
• Conduct on-site demonstrations and commercial evaluations
• Negotiate and close £280k machinery sales
• Build and manage a structured UK sales pipeline
• Develop repeat contractor relationships

Target: First unit secured within 6 months.

Compensation

• £2,000 per month consultancy retainer (6-month initial term)
• Car allowance
• 4% commission per unit
• 5% once 3+ units sold annually
• No earnings cap

Each sale generates £11,200–£14,000 commission.

Exclusive UK territory, with potential European expansion based on performance.

This opportunity suits a commercially confident plant sales operator seeking autonomy, upside and the chance to build a defined market rather than maintain an existing one.

Confidential discussions welcomed.
