Business Development Manager

Overview

• Set your own diary; any overnight stays away are led by you but not a major part of the role.

• Sell within the domestic road haulage market and manage customer relationships in a way that aligns with the company’s focus on automotive and chemical haulage (but can transport most goods).

• Experience of selling within the domestic road haulage market.
• Excellent communication skills.
• Self-motivated.

In return for your hard work you will be rewarded with a generous salary and bonus scheme, a laptop, phone, company car, pension and lots more.
