About the position of Business Development Manager

If you're an experienced Internal BDM, Telephone BDM or specialist finance sales professional with a great understanding of bridging finance, this is an opportunity to step into a genuinely field-based role where you'll have the freedom to build your own broker network, develop new relationships and drive your own business.

We're looking for a self-starting, commercially driven individual who enjoys opening doors, building relationships and turning opportunities into completed business. You'll have an established lender and experienced internal teams behind you, but you'll be expected to own your territory, create your own opportunities and make things happen.

Covering East London, Kent and Essex, you'll spend three days a week in the market meeting brokers and introducers, with two days in the Hertfordshire office working closely with the wider team.

For someone currently operating in an internal or telephone-based BDM role, this is a chance to get out from behind the desk, build your own profile in the market and take the next step in your earning potential and career.
