Business Development Manager

The Role

We are currently working with an established M&E contractor based in Warrington, delivering mechanical and electrical packages across the region. We are looking for a Business Development Manager to grow our pipeline by creating and converting opportunities with Tier 1 and Tier 2 main contractors.

You will work closely with our estimating, pre-construction and operational teams, with real influence over which projects we pursue and how we position ourselves. This is a relationship-led role — you will be out in front of contractors, not behind a desk.

What You'll Be Doing

• Building and maintaining relationships with pre-construction, procurement and commercial teams at Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors
• Creating opportunities from early market intelligence, getting in ahead of formal tender
• Getting onto bid lists, frameworks and preferred supplier arrangements
• Managing a live pipeline and reporting conversion and forecasts to senior management
• Attending pre-tender meetings, framework days, interviews and site visits alongside the technical team

What We're Looking For

• Proven business development experience in construction — ideally with an M&E contractor, main contractor or specialist subcontractor
• Demonstrable success winning work with Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors
• Working knowledge of M&E delivery and the tender, framework and prequalification process
• Commercially astute — able to assess opportunity value, margin and risk
• Self-motivated, confident presenting at senior level, and comfortable managing your own diary
• Full UK driving licence

Package

• Salary up to £70,000 including bonus
• Company car or car allowance
• Permanent, full-time, based in Warrington with regional travel to clients and sites
