Business Development Manager – Packaging Sector

Salary: up to £80,000 basic | OTE c.£115,000 | Bonus + Car Allowance | Permanent

A dynamic and fast‑growing organisation is seeking an ambitious Business Development Manager with proven sales experience in the packaging sector to drive the next phase of commercial growth.

This opportunity is ideal for a results‑driven B2B sales professional who thrives on opening doors, shaping strategy, and securing high‑value partnerships, specifically within the packaging market.

Why This Role Stands Out

In this strategic, high‑impact position, the Business Development Manager will play a central role in securing new accounts, strengthening commercial relationships, and influencing long‑term growth — all within the packaging industry.

Working remotely, you’ll benefit from genuine autonomy and the freedom to operate your territory in the most effective way, perfect for someone who performs at their best when trusted to deliver.

Key Responsibilities

As Business Development Manager, you will:

* Identify, target, and win new business opportunities in the packaging sector

* Develop and execute strategic sales plans aligned with packaging market growth objectives

* Build influential relationships with senior stakeholders and decision-makers across packaging manufacturing, distribution, and related sectors

* Manage the full sales cycle — from initial outreach to negotiation and close — specifically in packaging solutions and packaging sales

* Monitor and analyse packaging market trends and competitor activity to maximise competitive advantage

About the Ideal Business Development Manager

This role is designed for a seasoned B2B sales professional with a strong, demonstrable track record in packaging.

The successful candidate will bring:

* Essential: Proven sales experience within the packaging industry

* Strong commercial acumen and a consultative, solutions‑focused approach

* Excellent communication, negotiation, and influencing skills

* A driven, self‑motivated mindset with a strong focus on results

* Confidence operating at senior level and managing complex, high‑value sales cycles in packaging

We’re committed to promoting inclusive opportunities. If you’re excited about this Business Development Manager role but don’t meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply — your unique perspective could be exactly what they’re looking for
