Business Development Manager

Job Description:
Elements Kitchens Ltd
Reading (Showroom & Site Based)
Full-Time | Employed
OTE: £40,000 – £60,000+ (uncapped)
About us
We’re Elements Kitchens, a family-run business with over 30 years’ experience designing and delivering kitchens that balance British craftsmanship, German engineering, and fully bespoke solutions.
We handle everything in-house, from the first conversation and design through to installation and final handover. As we continue to grow in the regional development space, we’re looking for someone to help us build and strengthen our B2B relationships with housebuilders and developers.
The role
This isn’t a “sit in an office and wait for leads” type of sales job. It’s about getting out there, building real relationships, and becoming a trusted partner to developers and construction teams.
You’ll be:
* Finding and winning new business with regional developers – from single luxury plots through to larger housing schemes.
* Building a strong pipeline of future projects by networking with developers, architects, and site teams across the South West.
* Developing long-term relationships so Elements becomes the go-to kitchen partner on repeat projects.
* Working through commercial negotiations, often alongside QS teams, to get pricing and specifications right.
* Managing the process from first enquiry through to handover to our design and project delivery teams.
About you
We’re looking for someone who understands both sides of the table – commercial deals and what actually happens on site.
Ideally, you’ll have:
* A solid track record in B2B sales, ideally within construction, housebuilding, interiors, or kitchens.
* Confidence in reading plans and understanding project specs and costs.
* Strong communication skills – comfortable dealing with developers, site managers, and commercial directors.
* A proactive, driven approach with a genuine enjoyment of winning new business and building long-term relationships.
Why join us
* You’ll have access to a wide product range – from high-end German kitchens to fully bespoke solutions – so you can tailor proposals to almost any project.
* You’re supported by an experienced design and project team, so you can focus on sales and relationships rather than installation logistics.
* We’re an established business with 30 years behind us and a strong reputation in the industry.
* The earning potential is uncapped, with a clear commission structure that rewards bigger wins.
Benefits:
* On-site parking
Application question(s):
* Do you have any previous experience in a similar role?
Education:
* A-Level or equivalent (preferred)
