Are you a natural relationship builder who enjoys getting out into the market, building connections, and creating new business opportunities?
We’re working with a leading insurance brokerage that is looking to appoint a Business Development Manager to support its continued growth. This is a highly visible role focused on raising the profile of the business, developing professional networks, and creating opportunities through strategic relationship building.
This position would suit someone with a background in business development, professional services, sales, or insurance who thrives on meeting people, attending events, and building long-term partnerships. Insurance experience would be advantageous but is by no means essential; attitude, drive, and a genuine passion for networking are equally important.
Responsibilities of the Business Development Manager:
- o Build and maintain a strong network of professional contacts and prospective clients.
- o Attend industry events, networking functions, seminars, and business forums.
- o Organise and host events to promote the business and strengthen market presence.
- o Develop relationships with introducers and other professional partners.
- o Identify and create opportunities for new business growth.
- o Work closely with colleagues to convert opportunities into long‑term client relationships.
- o Represent the business professionally and positively within the local business community.
- o Maintain an active pipeline of prospects and relationship‑building activities.
What we are looking for:
- o Previous experience within business development, sales, relationship management, or a professional services environment.
- o Insurance experience is desirable but not essential.
- o Strong networking and communication skills.
- o Confidence engaging with senior decision‑makers and professional contacts.
- o A proactive and self‑motivated approach to generating opportunities.
- o Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple relationships effectively.
- o The drive, resilience, and work ethic required to succeed in a business development role.
Benefits of the Business Development Manager:
- o Competitive salary, flexible depending on experience.
- o Comprehensive benefits package.
- o Ongoing training and professional development opportunities.
- o The opportunity to join a highly respected and growing organisation.
- o Clear career progression within a supportive and collaborative environment.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys being out in the market, building meaningful business relationships, and playing a key role in driving growth. You’ll be given the freedom to develop your network, raise the profile of the business, and make a genuine impact on future success.
If you’re a motivated business development professional looking for your next challenge, we’d love to hear from you!
