EdgeComply is a product compliance service provider for manufacturers worldwide. The headache we solve: to sell products in Europe and beyond, manufacturers need certifications like CE marking. Otherwise, they risk fines, product recalls, and personal prosecution.
But the process is confusing, and the market is dominated by slow, old-school behemoths that are a pain to work with.
That’s where we come in: We are a modern, agile, digital, and fast compliance consultancy. Our Project Managers work on-site in London and are supported by a vast, highly vetted pool of remote compliance experts who execute the technical work.
This role is built for recent graduates who want a serious commercial apprenticeship. As a Business Development Trainee, you’ll rotate through the core revenue activities of EdgeComply: lead qualification, discovery, deal structuring, and client onboarding. You’ll learn how a modern B2B services company grows—from first touch to signed contract while working directly with the Founder.
This is a high-expectation, high-support role. By the end of your first year, you should be capable of running deals independently.
