Business Development Manager

Job description

**SafeContractor is the UK’s largest SSIP-registered and UKAS-accredited supply chain risk management company, trusted by 40,000 contractors. We simplify compliance for clients and contractors of all sizes, helping to make workplaces safer for everyone, through a flexible, risk-based approach.** As a Business Development Manager, you’ll be at the forefront of our growth — winning new enterprise clients and taking our UK sales success to the next level. This isn’t a role for someone who wants to sit back and manage a pipeline. We’re looking for a high-performing, commercially sharp new business professional who loves opening doors, creating opportunities and winning complex, high-value deals. You’ll own the full 360° sales cycle, targeting enterprise clients across sectors including construction, manufacturing, the public sector and retail. From first outreach to signed contract, you’ll take the lead — influencing senior decision-makers, building momentum and turning opportunities into wins throughout a complex sales cycle. You’ll uncover real business challenges, build trusted relationships and position our solutions with impact. Expect a fast-paced mix of prospecting, client meetings, demos, commercial conversations and negotiations — with plenty of opportunity to make your mark. You’ll also build your profile in the markets you own, getting out into the industry, growing your network and creating opportunities through events, roundtables, webinars and proactive outreach. **If you want bigger opportunities, bigger challenges and the chance to make a bigger impact, this is your opportunity to own your success, win more and help shape what comes next. This role will require travel between our offices in Cardiff and London as required, as well as travel to client sites.**
