Founded in 1997, my client has seen significant growth over the past 12 months and are now looking for an experienced BDE to join their top billing team. With over 25 years experience working within the R&D industry, they are known globally for helping businesses innovate and tailor solutions to every business’ needs.

At a time where businesses are looking to save money in all areas they can, there’s no better time to join the team and contribute to their client base. Industries include Software & Technology, Medical, Agriculture, Engineering, Hospitality and many more. Every business can innovate, but not all are aware they can receive tax relief from doing that. Types of businesses that’ve saved millions, include start-ups all the way up to large, international businesses – it’s not a niche sell!

How will they support your growth and help you achieve record billing figures? They will pay for relevant professional memberships & qualifications e.g. ATT, ICAEW, ICAS etc. You will have access to their phenomenal learning portal too with all relevant materials regularly uploaded/updated so you can deliver on your targets/provide a great service for clients.

If you hit/exceed expectations within your first 12 months, what next? Promotion to BDM with an increase of basic salary to £47K. High performers should take home 6 figures within their first 5 years.

Corporate social responsibility – HUGE commitment to giving back to the community too. Corporate charity days, payroll giving to charities, work experience for school & university students, charity call days.

Culture is important too right? Team building events, team socials and incentives, offsite annual retreats are celebrated throughout your time at the business.
