Business Development Manager

About this Role

Are you an experienced Business Development Manager, Sales Manager or Account Manager looking for an opportunity to help shape a new Energy Solutions business? As our Business Development Manager, you’ll work closely with the Head of Sales to develop customers, refine our product offering and build a strong platform for growth across the Power Solutions market.

• Build and develop relationships with new customers, existing Dawsongroup customers and key stakeholders.
• Deliver allocated sales targets while developing a strong pipeline, win rate and customer base.
• Identify new opportunities, market trends and competitive activity to keep our offering relevant.
• Lead negotiations on commercial agreements and support the development of the Business Plan, growth strategy and marketing plan.
• Work collaboratively with other Dawsongroup businesses to promote Energy Solutions and generate intercompany opportunities.

About You

You’ll be commercially minded, relationship focused and comfortable taking ownership in a role where there is genuine scope to shape how the business develops. Experience in Temporary Power Generation, HVAC or an asset based rental business would be advantageous, but it is not essential, and we want to hear from people who can bring relevant transferable experience.

• A proven ability to build and maintain customer relationships across different industries.
• Strong commercial awareness, with the confidence to identify opportunities and develop new business.
• Able to communicate business performance, energy goals, market trends and opportunities clearly.
• Comfortable working autonomously while collaborating with colleagues across the wider Dawsongroup.
• A proactive approach to learning, self-development, legislation and changing market requirements.

Not sure you meet every requirement? We know experience can be gained in different ways, so if you believe your transferable skills could make you successful, we encourage you to apply.
