We are hiring a Business Development Coordinator to own the front end of our sales process: researching the market, building and qualifying target lists, making first contact with prospective clients, and booking qualified meetings for our Business Development Lead and senior team.

• Outreach run first-touch outreach by email, phone and Linked In to open conversations and secure introductory meetings.
• Meeting coordination book qualified meetings into the diary, prepare concise briefing notes on each prospect, and coordinate follow-up actions.
• Pipeline hygiene keep our CRM/pipeline tracker accurate and current: every prospect has an owner, a status, a next action and a date.
• Support assist with industry events, conference attendance and marketing activity alongside the wider team.

What we're looking for

• 1 3 years' experience in a research, coordination, sales development or analyst role B2B, energy, construction, property or professional services backgrounds all work.
• Genuine interest in the UK energy transition; familiarity with grid connections, renewables development or planning processes is a strong advantage.

• Organised and systematic you like lists, trackers and getting things logged properly.
• Strong written English and solid Excel/Office skills.
• Self-starter who can work to a weekly rhythm of targets (prospects researched, contacts made, meetings booked).

What we offer

• £32,000 £ 35,000 depending on experience.
• A front-row seat in one of the fastest-growing sectors in UK infrastructure, with direct exposure to the Managing Director and senior delivery team.
• Clear progression path into a full business development or commercial role as the company grows.
• Working from our Glasgow base, 33 days' holiday, and company pension.
