They are currently looking for a Business Development Manager to drive new sales and grow the customer base across the UK.

  • To identify and approach prospective customers across multiple market sectors
  • Present the full label product portfolio with confidence and clarity
  • Convert leads into long-term customers by building trust and demonstrating value
  • Manage your own pipeline and CRM reporting
  • Maintain regular contact with new and existing customers to maximise account value
  • Collaborate with internal teams to ensure smooth project delivery and high customer satisfaction

Key Requirements:

  • Label sales experience preferred, but they will consider strong candidates from other flexo or digital printed packaging sectors
  • Proven B2B sales success with the ability to build and manage relationships
  • Self-motivated, organised, and comfortable working independently
  • Based in the Midlands, South of England, or South Wales is preferred although other locations will also be considered for exceptional candidates
