The Opportunity We are working on an exclusive basis with a specialist high-technology electronics business to appoint a commercially driven Business Development Manager focused on power electronics and high-voltage markets. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes advanced power conversion and high-voltage solutions, serving customers across defence, aerospace, automotive, industrial and scientific sectors. The business is undergoing an exciting transformation moving from a reactive sales model to a proactive, growth-led commercial culture. A dedicated Technical Lead and applications engineering function now provides strong back-office support, freeing this role to focus squarely on winning new business and developing existing accounts. This is a genuine opportunity to make your mark in a business with ambitious growth targets, strong technical credibility, and the backing of a major FTSE-listed group while retaining the agility and culture of an entrepreneurial SME. The Role Reporting to the Sales Director, you will take ownership of a portfolio of existing accounts and drive proactive new business development across high-voltage and power electronics applications. You will manage the full sales cycle from initial engagement through design-in to order placement, with full accountability for revenue growth and order intake. Key responsibilities include: Proactively identify, target, and develop new customer relationships through structured business development activity. Own and grow a portfolio of existing accounts, identifying new applications, programmes, and opportunities. Manage the full sales cycle end-to-end: engagement, design-in, quotation, negotiation, and close. Build trusted relationships with customers, prospects, and principal suppliers to drive cross-sell and up-sell activity. Monitor industry trends, attend relevant trade shows, and maintain competitive market awareness. Manage pipeline and forecasting using CRM tools, producing accurate sales reports and proposals. Develop application-level knowledge in key product lines, working closely with the Technical Lead on complex requirements. Act as a positive role model, sharing knowledge and supporting less experienced team members. The Candidate You will be a commercially hungry, technically credible BDM with a background in electronics distribution or technical sales someone who is motivated primarily by new business, customer engagement, and revenue growth rather than deep technical specialisation. You will likely bring: Proven experience in electronics distribution sales, ideally within power electronics or high-voltage markets. Strong working knowledge of power electronics technologies: power semiconductors, capacitors, magnetics, sensing, and high-voltage components. Demonstrated track record of identifying, developing, and closing new business from early engagement through to design-in and production ramp. Experience selling into defence, aerospace, or other regulated, high-reliability markets is a strong advantage. Excellent communication and relationship-building skills; able to engage credibly at all levels, from engineers to procurement leads. High energy, self-motivated, and proactive someone who consistently drives toward targets and takes ownership of outcomes. Comfortable with CRM systems for pipeline management, forecasting, and customer activity tracking. Degree-qualified in a relevant technical or engineering discipline, or equivalent practical experience. Please note: candidates must be eligible for Security Check (SC) clearance. This typically requires at least five years of continuous UK residency and the right to work in the UK. The Package Highly competitive base salary. Bonus scheme 20% OTE, uncapped. Car allowance. Access to group Share Incentive Plan. Pension plan with 6.5% employer contribution. Group life insurance (4x salary). Private medical cover (individual).

About You You will be a proven senior business development leader with strong agency-side or consultancy-side experience. You will understand how to sell complex, high value services where the client may not always know exactly what they need at the start. You will be confident navigating ambiguity, asking smart questions and turning loose conversations into well-shaped commercial opportunities. This role would suit someone who has worked in a digital agency, product studio, innovation consultancy, venture studio, experience design agency, software consultancy, transformation consultancy or similar environment.

Comfortable selling to senior leaders across product, marketing, technology, innovation, transformation and executive teams. What Success Looks Like The founders are no longer the sole owners of new business conversations. Inbound leads are qualified quickly and converted into better, larger opportunities.

They will be credible with founders and senior client stakeholders, but also hands on enough to work the pipeline, follow up leads, qualify opportunities and drive deals forward. They will not be someone who waits for perfect briefs. They will be someone who can take a messy conversation, find the real opportunity, shape it commercially and get it over the line. This is a brilliant opportunity for a senior BD professional who wants to play a defining role in helping a growing digital and innovation business build a proper new business engine.

Having successfully introduced the business's Fractional CFO / Finance Director, who has helped steer the organisation through a period of exceptional growth over the last 12 months, we are now supporting the appointment of a commercially minded and ambitious Financial Controller who will work directly alongside him as the business enters its next phase of expansion. This is far more than a traditional month-end reporting role. It is an opportunity to become a key member of the leadership team within a privately-owned, highly profitable business that has doubled turnover over the last year and is forecasting continued significant growth across the UK and Europe. If you enjoy building teams, improving processes, driving performance and partnering with senior stakeholders across a business, this role offers genuine influence and the chance to leave a lasting mark. Why Join This Business? This is a business with a compelling growth story and an exciting future. Operating within a specialist market with a highly established and loyal customer base, the company has built an enviable reputation and occupies a position where direct competition is limited. Combining both product and service-based revenue streams, it has developed a resilient and profitable model that continues to gain momentum. Key attractions include: Privately-owned, entrepreneurial business with clear growth ambitions Revenue has doubled over the last 12 months Strong EBITDA performance and healthy financial foundations Growing presence across the UK, with increasing sales activity throughout Europe Significant investment in people, systems and infrastructure A leadership team that genuinely values the contribution finance can make to commercial decision-making Opportunity to help shape the future finance function as the business scales Most importantly, finance is viewed as a genuine business partner rather than simply a reporting function. The wider leadership team actively welcomes insight, challenge and support from finance, creating an environment where your contribution will have real impact. The Opportunity Reporting directly to the Fractional CFO / FD, you will take ownership of the day-to-day financial management of the business whilst helping prepare the organisation for its next stage of growth.
