About the Role
Business Development Manager
High-End Design & Build Projects
£40,000 - £50,000 + Bonus + Car Allowance + Benefits
Remote - UK
Do you love the idea of turning blank spaces into places where imagination runs wild and children thrive?
Are you passionate about creating meaningful, lasting environments through consultative, purpose-driven sales?
I'm working with a long-established, high-end design and build business that creates bespoke outdoor environments-think playgrounds, leisure spaces, and outdoor learning environments for schools, councils, and leisure operators.
They're not your average supplier. Their work is fully bespoke, sustainably sourced, and often iconic-delivering projects that range from £50k up to several million, for a client base spanning from primary schools to major visitor attractions across the UK and beyond.
They're now looking to grow the commercial team with the hire of a Sales Consultant. This isn't a "hard sell" environment-it's consultative, creative, and built around long-term client relationships. Most business is inbound or referral-led, but you'll also be given the freedom to grow new markets or deepen existing ones.
What you'll do:
- Act as the first point of contact for new enquiries
- Qualify and nurture inbound leads
- Work closely with designers to co-create truly unique outdoor spaces
- Visit schools, councils, or leisure clients where appropriate
- Keep on top of activity and trends using HubSpot CRM
- Take ownership of your region and revenue goals
What they're looking for:
- Experienced in consultative or solution-based sales
- Can be based anywhere in the UK
- Comfortable managing complex, multi-stakeholder sales processes
- Highly organised, detail-oriented, and process-driven
- Confident using CRM systems to manage pipelines and performance
- Interested in or knowledgeable about outdoor play, street furniture, timber structures, sustainable design, or public realm projects
- Proactive in nurturing existing relationships while developing new opportunities
What's in it for you:
- Salary between £40,000 - £50,000
- High paid performance-based bonus (up to 50-75% of base in top-performing years)
- Car allowance (or company vehicle)
- Company laptop, mobile phone
- 22 days holiday + bank holidays + Christmas closure
- Ongoing training & development
- Option to work remotely with visits to HQ 1-2x per month
You'll be joining a close-knit and supportive team where the average tenure is 8+ years-proof that people tend to stay once they're in. If you're selling in the play sector already, this is a step up. If not, but you know education or consultative project sales, this could be your next move.
Interested? Drop me a message or apply directly, and I'll be in touch to talk you through the role and business in more detail.
