Job Description:

Business Development Manager - B2B Sales Hunter (M62 Corridor)

Salary: £45,000 - £50,000 Basic + 10% Bonus + Company Car + Benefits

Location: M62 Corridor (Home-based with up to 80% regional travel across the North West / West Yorkshire)

Position Type: Full-Time, Permanent

Urgency: Immediate Start Available

Are you a pure commercial hunter who thrives on closing net-new business?

We are partnering with a leading European giant in the logistics and supply chain sector. They are expanding their UK commercial team and are looking for a high-energy, resilient Business Development Manager to spearhead new business growth across the M62 Corridor.

This is not a "farming" or relationship-management role. We are looking for an ambitious sales professional with a genuine fire in their belly-someone who loves the thrill of the chase, knocking on doors, and taking a deal from a cold lead to a signed contract.

The best part? You won't be starting from scratch. While you will actively map out your own territory, our client has an advanced internal lead-generation system that feeds a high volume of warm leads directly into your pipeline from day one.

The Opportunity & Scope

• The Hunt: You will manage the full 360° sales cycle, from identifying prospective accounts to negotiating commercial terms and closing the deal.
• Massive Market Breadth: Your target market is incredibly diverse. One day you'll be pitching to local independent SMEs (like craft breweries), and the next you'll be negotiating complex corporate agreements with massive Blue-Chip FMCG giants.
• The Autonomy: This is a field-based role (up to 80% travel) giving you the freedom to manage your week, with a target of roughly 20 face-to-face client meetings per month.
• The Tools: You will be fully equipped with a company-paid LinkedIn Sales Navigator license and modern CRM tools to help you map, track, and dominate your territory.

What We Are Looking For (The Ideal Profile)

• The Mindset: A pure "Hunter" DNA. You are enthusiastic, driven, and highly resilient against rejection.
• The Trajectory: You are an "up-and-coming" sales professional looking for a step up, backed by a stable employment history.
• The Background:
• Ideal: A strong track record in B2B service-led sales where you sell a solution or service rather than just a physical product (e.g., vehicle rental/leasing, corporate asset hire, contract logistics, or service contracts).
• Alternative: A proven sales background specifically within the pallet pooling, packaging, or fast-moving supply chain industries.
• The Dealbreakers: If you are a traditional "Key Account Manager" or looking to manage a comfortable, pre-existing portfolio, this isn't the role for you. We need net-new business creators.

Key Metrics & Targets

• Build and manage a rolling sales pipeline of approximately £10M.
• Achieve an annual volume target of 500,000 units (with an average order value of ~£50k).
• Seamlessly hand over newly won accounts to internal Customer Service and Operations teams after the first month of successful contract execution.

What's in it for you?

• Competitive Base: £45,000 - £50,000 per annum (dependent on experience) and an annual bonus of up to 10%.
• Company Car provided for extensive regional travel.
• Tools for Success: Corporate tech stack, including full Office 365, advanced CRM systems, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator.
• Career Growth: Join an industry leader with a highly supportive internal infrastructure.
