Vacancy No 5606 Job Title BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER Location: NATIONAL UK PLEASE NOTE: This is a home/field-based, national sales position with regular travel across the UK. The role has nationwide scope, although the initial geographical emphasis is expected to be across Greater Manchester, Yorkshire and North Wales, with travel into Scotland and other parts of England as required. Candidates should therefore be comfortable operating autonomously across a broad geography and travelling flexibly in line with customer, project and partner activity. JOB DESCRIPTION Are you a commercially driven HVAC or building services sales professional with genuine specification credibility, a strong new business mentality and the ability to open doors, build strategic relationships and convert technically led opportunities into sustainable commercial growth? We are partnered with an innovative UK cleantech business specialising in smart hot water cylinders and connected hot water systems designed to reduce energy consumption, support decarbonisation and improve the performance of homes and buildings. My client is looking to appoint an experienced Business Development Manager to strengthen its specification led commercial position across new build housing, social housing, commercial property and wider energy and building services markets. This is not a conventional account management role. The successful individual will be expected to create demand, identify and prospect high value target accounts, develop new relationships, influence specification and build a high-quality pipeline across a diverse stakeholder base including developers, housing providers, consultants, contractors, distributors, utilities, energy partners and commercial property owners. The opportunity will particularly suit somebody who can combine technical credibility with a genuine hunter profile, translating smart hot water, low carbon heating and connected energy technology into clear customer outcomes around energy saving, carbon reduction, SAP and EPC performance, compliance, resident experience, grid flexibility and whole life value. THE COMPANY My client is a technology led UK business focused on improving the way hot water is stored, heated and managed across domestic and commercial applications. Its smart hot water cylinders and connected systems use intelligent control technology to heat only the water that is required, helping customers reduce energy use while improving flexibility and visibility over system performance. The proposition extends beyond the cylinder itself. The business works across retrofit, new build and commercial applications, bringing together hot water technology, controls, connected assets and energy flexibility to support increasingly demanding decarbonisation, efficiency and compliance objectives. Target markets include new build housing, social housing, commercial estates and property owners, developers, M&E consultants and contractors, distributors, utilities and energy partners. The business also works with internal product, technical, marketing, operations and leadership teams to develop solutions that can scale across customers, partners and channels.

A significant part of the role will involve engaging senior and technically experienced stakeholders including Asset Directors, Sustainability Leads, Development Directors, Technical Managers, Procurement Leads, Commercial Directors and C suite decision makers. You will be expected to understand each customer's commercial and technical priorities and translate them into clear value propositions around energy saving, carbon reduction, SAP and EPC performance, tenant and end user outcomes, grid flexibility, compliance and whole life value. This is a genuinely proactive business development position. The business expects a substantial proportion of time to be dedicated to prospecting and outbound new business activity, supported by customer meetings, partner engagement, proposal development, pipeline management, market mapping and close collaboration with internal technical and product teams. THE ROLE This is a field based national sales position combining specification development, strategic business development, channel engagement and commercial conversion. You will develop opportunities across housing associations, housebuilders, developers, M&E consultants, contractors, merchants, facilities teams, energy companies, commercial property owners and other relevant partners. You will build a structured target account plan, identify decision makers, open new conversations and progress opportunities through discovery, technical review, proposal, specification, pilot, framework, tender or commercial agreement as appropriate.

Strong credibility within HVAC, heating, hot water, heat pumps, renewables, building services, housing, construction, property, energy or another closely aligned technical market.

Ability to open doors, create urgency and build trust with senior stakeholders through complex B2B sales cycles. Consultative selling capability with the ability to translate technical features into measurable commercial, compliance and sustainability outcomes. Experience managing long cycle opportunities from initial engagement through proposal, specification, negotiation and commercial conversion.

Develop strategic relationships that generate repeatable demand, stronger specification influence, channel growth and scalable project opportunities. Maintain consistently high CRM quality across active opportunities, contact records, meeting notes, next steps and forecasting.

The role offers access to technical and product learning around smart hot water, low carbon heating pathways, connected assets and demand side flexibility, alongside regular coaching, pipeline reviews and development planning. THE PERSON This opportunity will suit an experienced and proactive sales professional who enjoys creating opportunities rather than simply managing what already exists.

For more than 60 years, we've been solving problems, creating innovative spaces, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, from homes and places to learn, to public spaces, long term sustainable placemaking and people at the heart of our thinking. We are a diverse, international practice of architects, engineers, designers, and urbanists. We work closely with our clients, users, and communities to craft spaces for living, working, learning, and enjoying life across the globe.

And since joining forces with Japan’s Nippon Koei in 2016, our ability to deliver integrated, impactful design has only grown stronger. Our work is rooted in creativity, quality, and collaboration. We believe that great design removes barriers and opens new possibilities, all while meeting the demands of a constantly evolving world. Whether we’re designing homes, workplaces, or public spaces, we always put people at the heart of our thinking, ensuring that the environments we create are not just functional, but also inclusive, beautiful, and socially and environmentally responsible. We’re proud of the places we've shaped and the lives we've touched, and we are committed to continuing our mission of designing a better, more connected world, one that leaves every place better than we found it. Our work is shaped by a genuine commitment to low-carbon design and places that serve communities equitably. Our founder, Professor Sir George Grenfell Baines, envisioned designing sustainable, inclusive, and resilient spaces that enrich communities and the environment. With 60 years of leaving the world better than we found it, this progressive vision for the world is also how we run as a business. We don’t just design for inclusion; we are naturally inclusive. We work closely with local communities, and create a workplace where employee feedback is valued, all to drive real change.
