Hi

We’re working with a well-established, fast-growing international business. With a strong track record of sustained organic growth, the business is now entering an exciting phase of development and is looking to bring on a Junior Business Development Executive to support continued expansion.

This is a great opportunity for someone early in their sales or commercial career who is motivated, resilient, and keen to learn in a fast-paced, international environment.

As a Junior Business Development Executive, you will:

• Identify and research new commercial opportunities and prospective clients
• Support early-stage deal activity, including initial outreach and discussions with external stakeholders
• Assist with the monitoring of working capital across live business activity (stock, debtors, cash, accruals)
• Track the progress of ongoing business in collaboration with logistics and operations teams
• Work closely with senior business managers to share insights, learning opportunities, and areas for improvement
• Contribute to market research and analysis to inform business development strategy

What we’re looking for:

• A strong work ethic and resilience in a target-driven environment
• Confident communication skills, both over the phone and face-to-face
• Willingness to engage in outreach activity (cold calling experience desirable but not essential)
• A personable, driven, and ambitious approach
• Ability to learn quickly and adapt in a dynamic commercial setting
• Strong relationship-building skills with internal and external stakeholders
• Interest in international trade, sales, or commercial operations
