Business Development Manager

Business Development Managers generate new business opportunities for their organisation — managing key customer accounts and promoting the company offerings to client businesses and prospects. They work closely with the General Manager and other executives.

As a Business Development Manager you might be developing a seasonal promo with the marketing department, reviewing sales reports before a meeting with the General Manager, visiting a client business to discuss a new service offering, or carrying out market research on potential customers in your geographic area.
