Business Development Executive

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.
