Sales Business Development Manager (UK/Hybrid/FullTime)
We’re hiring: Business Development Manager (New Business)
UK | Hybrid / Field Based
We are a leading UK-based provider of contractor management technology and workforce solutions for the hospitality, leisure and facilities sectors. With a national contractor network and proprietary platform, Event UK helps businesses drive efficiency by streamlining how they source, manage, and pay pre-approved workers across thousands of locations across the UK. The Company also operates JustPay, a mobile app that connects individual contractors to job opportunities with transparent pricing and same-day payment functionality.
We are looking for a commercially sharp new-business closer to drive immediate revenue and gross profit across Hospitality & Leisure as well as adjacent markets.
Competitive Salary and profit-based commission
This is a pure sales execution role, focused on winning and converting high-probability, quick-win opportunities using our existing tech and capabilities (no dependency on new product builds).
What you’ll be doing:
- Owning the full new business sales cycle end-to-end.
- Closing deals that protect margin and generate real profit, across our product family.
- Converting immediate value opportunities with minimal tech changes.
- Supporting growth across our newly acquired business and our new product offerings.
- Working closely with tech, other commercial team members, and operations.
Key elements of the role:
- Commission paid on gross profit, not revenue.
- Tiered commission rates.
- Clear mandate to close quickly, not just 'build pipeline'.
- Real autonomy and visibility working directly with leadership.
You’ll be a great fit if you:
- Have a proven track record in new business sales and closing.
- Strong commercial network which translates easily to sales with our contractor technology.
- Are strong in negotiation, able to explain complex technology simply to customers.
- Thrive in a performance-led, fast-paced and commission-driven environment.
- Experience in SaaS, marketplaces and gig economy sales is a big plus, but attitude, pace, and commercial instinct matter most.
