Business Development Manager

Location: Sevenoaks (Hybrid)

Salary: Up to £55,000 base + OTE £90,000

We’re working with a growing commercial maintenance business that is investing in its next phase of growth. This is a key hire – an individual contributor role with a clear route to Sales Director within 12 months for the right person.

You’ll take ownership of new business generation, building a pipeline across SMEs while also having exposure to larger, Tier 1 clients as the business continues to scale.

The role:

Drive new business across commercial maintenance services

Build and manage a consistent pipeline of SME clients

Identify and win opportunities within fire protection, compliance, or maintenance contracts

Engage and develop relationships with key decision-makers (FM, Ops, Estates)

Work closely with leadership to shape the sales strategy and growth plan

Support the transition from founder-led sales to a structured sales function

What we’re looking for:

Proven track record in B2B sales within maintenance, fire protection, or lift services

Experience selling into SME markets, with the ability to step into larger accounts

Comfortable operating as a standalone contributor in a growing business

Strong commercial awareness and ability to manage longer sales cycles

Ambition to step into a Sales Director role in the near term

Why this role?

Clear progression to Sales Director within 12 months

Opportunity to shape the commercial function as the business scales

Access to both SME and Tier 1 client opportunities

Strong earning potential with realistic OTE


This suits someone who wants more ownership, more influence, and a genuine pathway into leadership rather than just another sales role
