I’m currently partnering with a well-established, fast-growing logistics provider to recruit an exceptional Business Development Manager. This is a standout opportunity for a proven hunter who can hit the ground running and make an immediate commercial impact.

The business is a privately-owned UK freight forwarder with a strong reputation across road freight (UK & European), supported by warehousing, customs, and international solutions. With a network of global partners and multimodal capability (air & sea), they are now looking to accelerate their sea freight offering alongside their already successful road division.

Why Join?

• Excellent earning potential (package up to £80k)
• Hybrid/Field Working
• Car allowance or company vehicle
• Company Pension
• Negotiable Package for the right candidate!
• 20 days holiday + bank holidays
• Agile, entrepreneurial culture with genuine growth plans

The Role:

• Field-based sales role with regular office interaction (Mon-Fri, 8:00-17:00)
• Focus on winning new business across road freight, with a key objective to develop sea freight (import & export)
• Full autonomy to build and grow your pipeline
• Targeting SMEs through to larger enterprise customers

What They’re Looking For:

• A high-performing BDM with a track record in developing new business with Road Freight
• Strong commercial instinct and closing ability
• Experience in road freight essential; sea freight highly desirable
• Someone credible, driven, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment

If you’re looking for a role where you can make a name, build a desk, and be properly rewarded, this is worth a confidential conversation.
