New Business Development Executive (New Business Hunter)
Rotherham, United Kingdom | Posted on 06/18/2026
Howcroft Group Ltd are looking for a true new business hunter.
Not an account manager.
Not someone who waits for enquiries.
This role is for someone who thrives on:
- Winning new customers
- Building pipeline from scratch
- Turning prospects into long-term, high-value accounts
They are an established industrial supplies business specialising in mechanical and automation, site safety and production consumables, with a strong reputation across Yorkshire. Now they’re investing in growth — and this role will be key to delivering their aggressive targets in the fast changing industrial landscape.
The Role
You’ll be responsible for generating and winning brand new business across:
- Manufacturing
- Food & beverage production
- Distribution & warehousing
- Recycling & aggregates
Operating within a defined local territory, you’ll:
- Identify and target high-potential industrial companies
- Proactively prospect via calls, email, LinkedIn and site visits
- Secure meetings with decision-makers (operations, procurement, engineering)
- Deliver tailored proposals focused on cost, service and reliability
- Convert opportunities into profitable, long-term accounts
Requirements
What They’re Looking For
- A proven B2B salesperson with a strong track record in new business
- Comfortable with high levels of outbound activity
- Confident speaking to senior stakeholders
- Relentless, resilient and self‑motivated
Most importantly:
- You enjoy the chase.
- You don’t rely on inbound leads.
- You measure success by wins, not effort.
Experience in industrial supplies, MRO or technical sales is advantageous — but mindset, behaviour & performance matters more.
What You’ll Get
- Competitive basic salary
- Uncapped commission structure (high reward for high performance)
- Autonomy to build and own your territory
- Development & training on a proven sales methodology.
- Clear progression as we grow the team
Why Join Howcroft Group Ltd?
- Established business with strong operational support
- Opportunity to make a visible impact quickly
