Business Development Consultant – Vita Safety

Apr 06 2021

We are a thriving health, safety and risk management consultancy to a wide variety of clients in the North West and nationwide. 

Since 2006, we’ve been making a genuine impact on our clients’ businesses and lives, building long-lasting relationships founded on mutual trust and respect. It’s our fantastic team who make this happen; passionate experts who prioritise customer care and work collaboratively to offer clients an unparalleled service.

The Position

With big ambitions for the future and a growing client base, we’re looking for a new Business Development Consultant to join our close-knit team. You’ll be working directly with Ian Hutchings, our Founder, as well as our marketing and consultancy team to help develop the business in all areas. 

Responsibilities

The role is yours to shape and own. You’ll have the freedom and autonomy to develop new ways of working that boost our client relationships, improve our processes and attract new business. 

No two days will be the same. A multi-faceted role, you’ll be working on:

  • driving exceptional customer experiences
  • networking with potential clients
  • managing a diverse range of client accounts
  • improving CRM efficiency
  • writing and delivering high quality service proposals 
  • streamlining and improving the customer journey
  • helping us expand into new markets 
  • strengthening our presence in existing markets

Requirements

You will be a proactive, considerate and enthusiastic individual who can think on their feet and work autonomously. At the same time, you will enjoy working as a team, spending time getting to know your colleagues and building meaningful connections. 

An open and confident communicator, your focus will be on doing what’s best for our customers, encouraging them to question what they need vs. what they want so they can get the most out of our services. 

You will be target-driven and should have experience working in a similar B2B services or professional services role in the risk management field. You should also be able to demonstrate how you’ve made a difference in an organisation and the many ways your work has benefited client relationships. 

Business development experience in the education, commercial, residential, hospitality or leisure sector is desired but not essential. 

Benefits

Salary £35-40K + bonus, car allowance, pension and healthcare scheme.

This role includes a car allowance, a competitive pension scheme and a private health care scheme. We will continually invest in your development, encouraging you to seek out growth opportunities and providing support in whatever way we can. 

A small and friendly team, we enjoy a variety of fun activities regularly, from hiking in the surrounding countryside to urban team experiences and eating out.

We are a family-orientated business. Our people have the flexibility to put their family first and we encourage our team members to suggest different ideas for team days and events.
