Overview
Award-Winning Tech Scale-Up | £1bn Valuation | 30,000+ Customers
Ready to own your territory and earnings? We're looking for a proven B2B hunter to drive growth at one of the UK's fastest-scaling tech companies.
The Opportunity
Focus Group has grown to £1bn valuation with 30,000+ customers and 1,000+ employees. We're not slowing down.
As our Business Development Manager, you'll own a protected territory, selling our complete technology stack (Telecoms, IT, Cyber Security, Mobile) to SME and mid-market businesses. This isn't order-taking; it’s consultative selling that builds lasting partnerships.
Your Earnings Potential
- Base: £30-40k + £400/month car allowance (depending on experience)
- Year 1 OTE: £65-80k (realistic, based on current team performance)
- Top performers earn: £100k+ (uncapped commission with monthly accelerators)
- No thresholds: You earn from deal one
What Success Looks Like
This is true 360 sales ownership - you'll control the entire customer journey:
- Prospecting: Research your territory, execute outbound campaigns (cold calling, LinkedIn, email), turn cold prospects into warm opportunities
- Consultative Selling: Run discovery calls and face-to-face meetings, present tailored solutions that solve real business challenges
- Closing Deals: Navigate complex B2B cycles with multiple stakeholders, handle objections, negotiate contracts, and close through value creation
- Account Growth: Cross-sell and upsell your client base, generate referrals, and build long-term strategic partnerships
What We're Looking For
- Lives for the hunt - you get energized by finding and winning new business from scratch
- Thrives on cold outreach - picking up the phone, networking events, and creating opportunities
- Loves the challenge of breaking into new accounts and building relationships from zero
- Has B2B sales experience with complex solution selling
- Is self-motivated and resilient - rejection doesn't phase you; it fuels you
- Can work autonomously while being a strong team player
- Track record of consistently opening new territories or markets
- Experience selling technology solutions to SMEs (20-500 employees)
- Background in cyber security, telecommunications, or IT services
What’s in it for you?
- Real earning potential: No thresholds or limits - Industry Leading GP commission share + monthly accelerators
- Territory protection: Your accounts stay yours. We don't redistribute successful territories.
- Product training: Comprehensive onboarding on our full tech stack, plus ongoing education as we add new solutions.
- Flexible working: 2 days WFH after probation (performance-dependent), work from any UK office.
- Rewards: Annual incentive trips (2024: Ibiza), monthly team events, bonuses for exceeding target.
