This is a highly autonomous, remote-based role at a global consultancy within the cybersecurity sector.

As the Senior Business Development Manager, you will take ownership of high-impact sales initiatives in a values-driven, fast-growing organisation. You will target major private and public sector clients, working remotely from home while visiting clients across the UK as needed.

  • Proven Sales Track Record in the cybersecurity sector closing deals of £250K+ solutions for at least four years.
  • Your CV should share quantifiable examples of your wins, for example, "Secured £450K+ contracts with...", "Targeted on £1.7M of new business and achieved £1.9M", etc.
  • You will be naturally approachable and build rapport effortlessly, enabling you to uncover decision-makers' true pain points.
  • You are a proven negotiator with a focus on win-win outcomes, securing long-term partnerships, not just one-off sales.
  • You will be the kind of person who stays abreast of current and emerging cybersecurity trends and integrates this knowledge into strategic planning.
  • You will take ownership of performance metrics, including sales targets, KPIs, and other set objectives, ensuring they are met or exceeded.
  • You will have demonstrable experience of implementing and delivering strategic plans to increase market share and long-term growth.
  • In time, you will be expected to lead and grow a team of similar strategic business developers and perhaps set up an SDR operation in your locality.
