We’re partnering with a fast‑growing sports performance brand that’s scaling quickly and building serious momentum in the B2B space. They’re a tight‑knit, high‑energy team who move fast, care deeply about what they do, and have sport at the heart of everything.

  • Developing long‑term commercial relationships with key decision‑makers and ensuring strong account growth post‑sale through upselling and repeat orders
  • Identifying and developing opportunities for international distribution partnerships across Europe and wider global markets
  • Working closely with marketing and internal teams to share market insight, shape campaigns and ensure a seamless onboarding experience for new partners

This is what you’ll bring to the team

As a Business Development Manager, you’ll be a commercially driven self‑starter who is confident operating independently and creating momentum in a fast‑paced environment.

  • Proven experience in B2B sales or business development, ideally within sports, healthcare, fitness or consumer goods
  • Strong ability to manage the full sales cycle and consistently generate new business opportunities
  • Confident engaging with professional buyers and building trust quickly with a range of stakeholders
  • Highly proactive approach with strong pipeline management and organisational skills
  • A genuine interest in sport and performance, with the energy and drive to thrive in a scaling business

This is what you’ll get in return

  • £30,000 – £40,000 base salary
  • £50,000 – £55,000 OTE
  • Hybrid / flexible working setup
  • Autonomy to build and own your own pipeline and territory
