Head of Sales Bedfordshire £60,000–£70,000 basic + uncapped commission Car allowance Six-figure OTE potential We're working exclusively with an established facilities maintenance and fire safety business operating across commercial property, education, aviation, local authority and wider property sectors. The business has a strong operational platform, established relationships with major clients and the capability to deliver complex maintenance, fire safety and compliance projects. The next stage of growth requires something different — a senior sales leader to take ownership of the commercial strategy and build a structured, high-performing sales function. This is a genuine opportunity to shape how sales is done within the business rather than simply stepping into an established structure. The opportunity You'll work closely with the Managing Director to develop and lead the company's sales strategy. The role will be heavily focused on new business, while also maximising opportunities within the existing client base. You'll have the autonomy to identify target markets, develop relationships, build a sales process and create a consistent approach to winning new business. You'll also inherit an existing team and client base to build from, rather than starting completely from scratch. Your responsibilities will include: ▪ Develop and execute the company's sales and business development strategy. ▪ Identify and win new commercial clients across target sectors. ▪ Develop relationships with senior decision-makers and key stakeholders. ▪ Identify opportunities within existing and previously active accounts. ▪ Build and manage a structured sales pipeline. ▪ Develop a consistent sales process from initial contact through to conversion. ▪ Lead and develop the existing Account Management team. ▪ Set clear targets, KPIs and expectations across the sales function. ▪ Work closely with the MD and wider leadership team on commercial strategy. ▪ Support pricing, tender and framework opportunities. ▪ Identify new markets and opportunities for growth. ▪ Help build the sales infrastructure, processes and team required for the next stage of the business. What we're looking for We're looking for someone who combines strategic thinking with genuine new-business ability. You'll be comfortable creating a plan, identifying opportunities and then getting out there and winning them. You'll ideally have: ▪ Proven experience in a senior sales or business development position. ▪ A strong track record of winning new B2B business. ▪ Experience managing and developing salespeople. ▪ Experience working towards and owning commercial targets. ▪ The ability to build relationships at senior level. ▪ A consultative approach to business development rather than a transactional sales style. ▪ Strong commercial awareness and the confidence to influence pricing and strategy. ▪ Resilience, drive and the ability to operate with a high level of autonomy. Experience within facilities management, building services, M&E, fire safety, construction, property services or another technical B2B environment would be highly advantageous. Experience of working with commercial property organisations, managing agents, local authorities, education, aviation or tier-one contractors would also be relevant. This role will suit someone who... Wants to build rather than maintain. You may already be operating at Head of Sales or senior BDM level, or you could be a high-performing Business Development Manager or Commercial Manager ready to take ownership of a wider sales function. Perhaps you've reached the ceiling in your current business. Perhaps you've got the experience and ideas but not the autonomy to implement them. Or perhaps you're simply looking for a role where your success will have a visible impact on the direction of the business. If you're motivated by building something, winning business and seeing the results of your work, this could be a very good fit. How to apply This search is being handled exclusively by Mixxos.
