Business Development Manager

About Connekt

Connekt is a fast-growing EV infrastructure provider. With strong roots in destination charging, we now help organisations roll out workplace and fleet depot charging through our fully funded Charging as a Service (CaaS) model.

We remove the barriers to electrification by funding, installing, and operating charging infrastructure with no upfront cost.

Our focus is on workplace charging and depot-based fleets, delivering smart, scalable solutions that combine hardware, software, funding, and ongoing support into one seamless offering.

We’re a scaling, fast-paced business where adaptability is everything. We move quickly, make decisions fast, and back people who take ownership. It’s not for everyone, but for the right person, it’s a huge opportunity to grow and make an impact.

The Role

We are looking for a Business Development Manager to drive growth across the UK, based in our Manchester regional office.

• Minimum 3 years’ experience in B2B solution sales
• Strong ability to build trust and influence stakeholders at all levels
• Commercially astute with a consultative, problem-solving mindset
• Highly self-motivated, organised, and driven to succeed
• Confident communicator, both in person and on the phone
• Experience in EV, energy, fleet, or infrastructure sectors
• The role is primarily office-based, with time spent in external meetings as required

Why Join Connekt?

• Sell a truly differentiated, fully funded solution that solves real customer challenges
• Ongoing training and development to build expertise in Connekt and EV revolution
• Clear career progression opportunities as the business scales
