Business Development Consultant – Automotive

 

Uncapped Commission | Company Car | Real Growth Impact

Are you commercially driven with a sharp eye for opportunity? Do you thrive on opening doors, building pipelines, and turning untapped potential into real growth?

We’re looking for a Business Development Consultant to work alongside our Field Sales Consultants, helping to unlock growth in high-potential territories. This is a strategic, front-end sales role focused on new business development, territory expansion, and long-term market growth.

If you enjoy spotting gaps in the market, creating momentum, and playing a key role in shaping how a territory grows, this could be the perfect next step in your sales career.

The Role

As a Business Development Consultant, you’ll take a broader, strategic view of the territory, focusing on opportunity creation and future growth. Your role will include:

  • Identifying high-potential customers and growth areas
  • Researching and targeting new business opportunities within independent garages and main dealers
  • Engaging and building early-stage relationships with key decision-makers and influencers
  • Opening new accounts and creating a strong, sustainable pipeline
  • Working closely with Field Sales Consultants to develop and maximise territory potential
  • Supporting territory planning and helping shape go-to-market strategies
  • Representing Würth UK professionally and confidently when engaging new prospects
  • Providing excellent service, including after-sales follow-up, to ensure customer satisfaction

This is a role for someone who loves creating momentum, not just maintaining what already exists.

What We’re Looking For

  • A proactive, self-motivated individual with a strong commercial mindset
  • Experience in business development, territory growth, or new-market expansion
  • Confidence opening conversations and engaging new prospects at all levels
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  • The ability to identify opportunity and convert interest into results
  • Comfortable working independently while collaborating with wider sales teams
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise high-value opportunities
  • An interest in the automotive sector or B2B sales (full training provided)
  • Competent using CRM systems and sales reporting tools
  • Full, clean UK driving licence

What We Offer

  • £24,000 basic salary with minimum guaranteed earnings of £27,300
  • OTE of approximately £35,000
  • Uncapped commission linked directly to new business development
  • Company car, tablet, and mobile phone
  • Structured onboarding and ongoing training
  • Clear progression opportunities within a growing sales organisation
  • Monday–Friday working pattern
  • 23 days holiday, rising with length of service
  • Pension and healthcare plan
  • Access to additional rewards, incentives, and recognition schemes
