The Opportunity

We are looking for a commercially driven Business Development professional who can build the market, create opportunities, engage senior stakeholders and convert conversations into revenue. This is a frontline BD role for someone who genuinely enjoys selling consulting and professional services.

What You Will Own

· Own business development and revenue generation for identified sustainability consulting service lines.

· Build and maintain a healthy sales pipeline and sales forecast.

· Identify new accounts, sectors and opportunities through research, networking, referrals, events and targeted outreach.

· Drive opportunities end-to-end: lead → qualification → discovery → solutioning → proposal → negotiation → closure.

· Engage CXO, Sustainability/ESG, EHS, Procurement, Operations, Plant, CSR, Finance and Risk stakeholders.

· Work with technical consultants to convert client requirements into practical, commercially viable solutions.





· Develop long-term accounts, cross-sell relevant services and expand relationships beyond a single engagement.

· Track market developments, regulations, competitor offerings and emerging sustainability needs to identify new propositions.

· Own commercial discussions, follow-ups, CRM discipline and revenue/order-book targets.
