Business Development ManagerIrelandTo €55,000BonusCarPackageThis business manufactures mission-critical sealing solutions to some of the toughest industries out there: pharmaceutical plants where contamination isn't an option, chemical facilities where failure means shutdown, pulp and paper operations running 24/7, and engineering applications where downtime costs millions. These aren't nice-to-have products, they are essential. Which means the sales opportunities are real, the technical conversations are substantial, and the revenue potential is significant. But here's the catch: none of it comes to you. You have to go get it. Every single opportunity. From scratch.What You'll Actually DoForget babysitting existing accounts. Your sole mission? Hunt. Win. Grow. You'll be the tip of the spear, generating new business from scratch and driving aggressive revenue growth in a territory that's wide open for someone who knows how to work it.This is pure new business generation. no hand-holding, no inherited pipeline, no safety net. You'll craft campaigns, chase leads across multiple channels, and close deals that matter. But once you have won the business, you get to grow the client. The best of both worlds. If you need someone to tell you what to do every day, keep scrolling.The ChallengeBuild something from nothing. Every dollar of revenue you generate is yours to claim.Work independently. You'll get support, but you won't get micromanaged. Prove you can operate without a leash.Face rejection daily. Then get back up and close anyway.Think commercially. Spot trends, understand what drives customers, and turn insights into revenue not just activity.What's In It For You?Real autonomy. Make decisions fast. Execute faster. No bureaucratic nonsense slowing you down.Genuine growth. You'll learn the technical side (sealing technology, engineering applications) and become a genuine expert, not just a product pusher.A meritocracy. Hit your targets, exceed them, and you'll be recognized. This isn't about politics, it's about performance.The satisfaction of winning. If closing deals, building relationships from zero, and seeing your pipeline convert doesn't excite you, this role will bore you to tears.What You NeedProven success in new business development within the manufacturing space (pharma, food & bev, chemical processing etc.)The consultative selling skills to understand why customers actually buyResilience (rejection-proof would be ideal)Commercial sharpness and analytical thinkingThe ability to present, negotiate, and close without breaking a sweatA formal sales qualification (or the drive to get one)Technical background in engineering? Great. Don't have it? You'll learn. What matters more is whether you have the hunger.The Real QuestionCan you handle building something significant without someone holding your hand? Can you thrive when success is entirely down to you?If you're still reading, you might just be exactly who we're looking for.
