Business Development Manager

Build revenue. Shape the future of marketing for good growth.

We're looking for an experienced Business Development professional to drive new client acquisition for one of the UK's fastest-growing marketing advisory businesses. You'll engage senior marketing and transformation leaders, shape commercial opportunities and win strategic consulting and advisory engagements with global brands.

Responsible Marketing Advisory (RMA) is an expanding and successful high-growth, professional services marketing advisory business helping leading organisations and top brands such as Diageo, Mars, Unilever, TikTok, Meta and more, transform their marketing and media for real impact and good growth.

If you’re a hands-on dealmaker who enjoys the individual-contributor process of meeting new businesses and growing a pipeline, through to closing deals and turning relationships into long-term value, this is your opportunity.

If you're ready to own growth, win meaningful business, and be part of a high-performing, ambitious team, we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

• Own and deliver new business revenue from first conversation to signed deal
• Build a high-quality pipeline through proactive outreach, networking, marketing leads, and internal/external referrals

• Lead sales cycles and secure new engagements
• Develop compelling proposals aligned to client challenges and business transformation goals, collaborating internally
• Manage your pipeline, forecast accurately, and track performance
• Collaborate closely with internal experts to convert opportunities into long-term partnerships

Why Join RMA?

• High-impact role with clear ownership of revenue growth
• Supportive environment with comprehensive business training and marketing support to enable your personal growth and business development
• Uncapped earning potential with competitive base salary and commission
• A culture that prioritises people, clients, and performance equally
• The opportunity to shape strategy and influence business growth
• A collaborative, enterprising environment where ideas are valued and action is rewarded

Who You Are

• Proven track record in selling consulting, agency, or professional services into new business wins (not selling products and not account management)
• A strong communicator who builds trusted, long-term relationships
• An experienced new business sales professional who is willing to learn and welcomes the opportunity for further development

What Success Looks Like

• Consistently hitting and exceeding revenue targets
• Building a strong and fast-moving pipeline
• Converting opportunities into long-term client relationships
