Job Description

Role Overview

You will be the driving force behind our expansion into the built-environment sector, identifying new business opportunities long before construction begins. Your focus will be on cultivating trusted relationships with the key decision-makers—consultants, architects, developers, and security managers—who shape project specifications. By positioning our electronic security and safety solutions early in the project pipeline, you directly influence which technologies are specified, ensuring a steady flow of high-quality leads for our presales and design teams.

Key Responsibilities

  • Proactively seek out and nurture long-term partnerships with consultants, quantity surveyors, architects, property owners, developers, and security managers operating within construction and infrastructure projects.
  • Monitor the project pipeline from its earliest stages, identifying upcoming developments and engaging with relevant stakeholders to secure early involvement for our solutions.
  • Act as a brand ambassador for the company by attending industry events, networking groups, and on-site meetings to increase visibility and credibility within the sector.
  • Identify promising business opportunities and qualify them thoroughly before transferring details to the presales and design departments for tailored quotations and proposals.
  • Maintain accurate, current records of all client interactions, opportunities, and deal progress in the CRM system, and use these reports to inform weekly strategy sessions.
  • Collect and share competitive intelligence, including details on rival offerings, upcoming tenders, and market developments, to help management refine positioning and approach.
  • Take full ownership of agreed revenue and new-business targets, tracking your own performance against KPIs and adapting your approach to consistently meet or exceed them.

Requirements & Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree or Higher National Diploma in Business, Marketing, ICT, or a closely related discipline.
  • At least 2–3 years of hands-on experience in B2B business development or relationship management, preferably within the security, ICT, or green energy sectors.
  • An existing network of contacts among consultants, architects, quantity surveyors, project owners, or other built-environment stakeholders is a significant advantage.
  • Demonstrated ability to engage and present confidently to senior-level professionals, with strong communication and networking skills.
  • Highly self-motivated and comfortable working independently, with a clear sense of accountability for achieving targets without close supervision.
