Business Development Executive

Job Details

Dartford | £32,000 | OTE 45k

Monday–Friday, 8:30am–4:30pm | Office-based

A relationship-led commercial role with genuine progression — ideal for someone who enjoys connecting with people, asking great questions, and spotting opportunities.

This isn’t a traditional “hunter” sales role.

It’s about building rapport, creating interest, understanding needs, and developing long-term customer relationships — supported by a strong training programme and a collaborative team.

Why this could be a great next step

Growth you can feel: You’ll develop your confidence, your commercial skills, and your ability to influence — with full training and ongoing support.
A team that backs you: Join a friendly, supportive environment that celebrates initiative, effort and progress.
A strong reward structure: Competitive salary plus generous commission and bonuses — with clear, achievable targets.

What the role involves

You’ll be the first point of contact for potential clients, focused on quality conversations that uncover needs and open the door for the wider team.

Your day-to-day will include:

Making 60+ outbound calls per day
Building rapport quickly and professionally
Asking strong, structured questions to understand customer needs
Generating interest and booking high-quality appointments
Developing ongoing client relationships — not just one-offs
Logging activity accurately using a CRM
Spotting opportunities and following up consistently

It’s fast-paced, people-focused and ideal for someone who enjoys conversations, structure, and working towards goals.

Who will thrive here?

Someone who is:

Sales-minded, but driven by relationships and service, not hard selling
Confident speaking with a wide range of customers
Curious — able to ask the right questions and listen well
Resilient, upbeat, and comfortable with a busy call-led day
Experienced in outbound calling or customer engagement
Motivated by progression and continuous learning

If you enjoy being part of a team, want to develop your commercial toolkit, and like the rhythm of structured, productive days — you’ll settle in well.
What you’ll gain

OTE up to £45,000
Pension, healthcare and 23 days holiday + bank holidays
A supportive team culture with regular social events
Free parking at the Dartford office
Clear career pathways as the department continues to grow

If this sounds like a role where you could build confidence, develop your commercial skills, and genuinely make an impact, I’d be happy to talk it through with you.
