Job Description & How to Apply Below

As a Business Development Manager, you will drive strategic growth by winning new customers across Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and enterprise organisations. You will position our client as a trusted partner delivering integration as a managed service, helping customers modernise and scale their IT operations.

This role goes beyond traditional sales. Success is built on long‑term relationships, a deep understanding of customer challenges, and the ability to create lasting value. You will own the full new‑business lifecycle — from identifying and engaging prospects to closing complex, high‑value deals that directly support the company’s growth strategy.

Key Responsibilities Strategic Sales & Pipeline Development
  • Execute a targeted, data‑led sales strategy to acquire new logos across mid‑market and enterprise segments
  • Identify and develop key accounts, gaining a strong understanding of their integration, outsourcing, and service management requirements
  • Build and manage your own pipeline through a mix of outbound and inbound activity, including calls, email, events, and social channels
  • Partner closely with marketing to qualify leads, develop account plans, and progress opportunities
  • Lead solution‑oriented presentations, demonstrations, and workshops tailored to each prospect’s business challenges and technical environment
  • Position our client not simply as a technology provider, but as a strategic partner delivering integration as a fully managed service
  • Navigate complex buying groups and senior stakeholders using a consultative, value‑based selling approach
  • Own the end‑to‑end sales process, from qualification through negotiation, close, and handover to delivery teams
Market Insight & Cross‑Functional Collaboration
  • Stay informed on industry trends, competitive offerings, and developments within SaaS, integration, and IT service management
  • Share market and customer insights with marketing, product, and leadership teams to inform strategy and messaging
  • Collaborate cross‑functionally with Marketing, Product, Partner, and Expert Services teams to ensure customer success from day one
  • Maintain accurate forecasting and pipeline management using CRM tools and established sales playbooks
What We’re Looking For Required
  • Proven experience selling managed services, outsourcing solutions, or service‑led SaaS offerings
  • Strong understanding of managed services business models and the value of recurring, long‑term engagements
  • Demonstrated ability to manage complex sales cycles involving multiple stakeholders and decision‑makers
  • Experience using CRM systems (e.g. Hub Spot or Salesforce), Linked In Sales Navigator, and sales enablement tools
  • Customer‑focused, proactive, and solutions‑driven, with strong communication and presentation skills
  • A strong ownership mindset — results‑oriented, decisive, and accountable
Nice to Have
  • Knowledge of ITSM, SIAM, or related service delivery frameworks
Why Join Our Client
  • Redefine integration sales: Be at the forefront of the shift from project‑based to service‑led integration delivery
  • Make a real impact: Enable organisations to accelerate digital transformation through long‑term, strategic partnerships
  • Clear progression: Defined career paths into Senior AE or Strategic Account Manager roles
  • Flexible working: London‑based office with hybrid working options
