I'm currently exclusively recruiting on behalf of my client for a Business Development Executive to join their growing environmental and industrial services business.

This is a genuine new business / hunter role for someone who enjoys opening doors, winning new accounts and building long-term customer relationships.

You'll be responsible for identifying new opportunities across the South West, developing relationships with key decision makers and converting prospects into long-term customers.

Initially, the focus will be on road sweeping and tanker services, with the opportunity to develop into a wider range of environmental services as your experience grows.

You'll work closely with the Business Development Manager and play an important role in supporting the continued growth of the business.

Key Responsibilities

• Generate new business through cold calling, networking, lead generation, referrals and proactive prospecting
• Build and maintain a healthy sales pipeline
• Arrange and attend customer meetings across the South West
• Develop relationships with Site Managers, Buyers, Procurement Teams and key decision makers
• Prepare quotations and commercial proposals

• Maintain accurate sales activity through the CRM
• Support the transition of new customers into the operational teams
• Remain a key commercial contact for your customers

You'll be:
