Job Title: Business Development Manager

Reporting to: CEO

We're iCoTech, a small Microsoft Partner based in the heart of Cardiff. As a Microsoft Partner, we help large organisations deliver change using Microsoft Power Platform. Our goal is to make Project Delivery smarter and more efficient through easy to scale technology. We use a unique accelerator approach, offering ready made accelerators called iCoRisk, iCoPlan, and iCoView that help our customers manage Projects, Risks, and Performance across their organisations more effectively.

We have customers across the world but predominantly here in the UK across the Public Sector. Our team is based across the UK with iCoHub (our office) being in Cardiff. We have strong relationships across our customer base and Microsoft, and we have a brilliant Marketing Team to work alongside.

Are you a results driven professional with a hunter mindset, ready for your next big challenge? We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Business Development Manager to join our team. In this role, you'll target public sector accounts, driving business growth with industry leading solutions.

As iCoTech's new Business Development Manager, you'll thrive in a dynamic environment, confidently managing multiple sales engagements at once. You'll have an entrepreneurial mindset and a passion for building strong C level relationships and will play a key role in driving our business forward.

You'll be a strategic and persuasive communicator, bringing a pragmatic, solutions led approach to every conversation. By understanding client challenges and goals, you'll effectively demonstrate how iCoTech's Power Platform Accelerators can be tailored to meet their specific needs.

This is a pure new business role, no account management, no bid management, 100% focused on building our new business pipeline. You will receive Marketing Qualified Leads from the Marketing Team, but also generate your own leads through your own channels, taking them through to opportunity via a pre defined Sales Methodology. You will work closely with the Practice Manager and CEO to navigate the Pre Sales processes through to sale.

You'll be responsible for prospecting leads, setting appointments, booking Discovery meetings and working with the customer and procurement teams to effectively close strategic sales across some of the biggest and most diverse organisations in the world.
