We get underneath the job title to understand what you’ll be selling, who you’ll be selling to, what you’ll inherit and what you’ll be expected to build.

The BDM Role
Business Development Managers sit at the heart of commercial growth, identifying opportunities, developing relationships and taking ownership of the sales cycle from prospecting through to close.
At this level, employers increasingly expect more than lead generation. Strong BDMs can build and manage pipeline, influence senior decision-makers, negotiate commercially and contribute to wider go-to-market activity, while maintaining an accurate view of future revenue.

What Employers Are Looking For
Meet the TeamA strong track record matters, but employers want to understand what sits behind the numbers. What did you sell? Who did you sell to? How much pipeline did you create yourself? How complex was the sales cycle?
Experience managing a full sales cycle, exceeding new business targets, using CRM effectively and negotiating with senior stakeholders is highly valued. Relevant sector knowledge can also carry significant weight in more specialist BDM roles.

Experience, Training & Development
There is no single qualification needed to become a successful Business Development Manager. At this level, commercial results and relevant sales experience usually carry more weight than academic credentials.
Professional training such as SPIN Selling, Challenger or Sandler can strengthen your approach, while experience with platforms such as Salesforce and HubSpot is increasingly valuable in businesses with more structured sales functions.

What MCS Gives You Beyond the Job Description
Head of Sales Jobs
Head of Sales jobs put you at the centre of commercial growth, from setting strategy and developing people to improving performance and identifying where the business goes next.
We’ll get underneath the opportunity, including the team you’ll inherit, the growth expected of you and what you’ll genuinely have the authority to build or change.

Sales Development Representative Jobs
