Business Development Manager – Contamination Control Solutions

Life Sciences & Cleanroom Manufacturing | North of England

£55,000 - £65,000 Basic Salary + Uncapped Commission + Comprehensive Benefits Package

Drive Growth. Open Doors. Shape Contamination Control Strategy.

Are you a successful new business sales professional with experience selling into the Life Sciences, Pharmaceutical Manufacturing or Scientific sectors?

Do you thrive on opening new accounts, developing strategic relationships and delivering consultative solutions rather than simply selling products?

This is an outstanding opportunity to join a globally recognised market leader in contamination control and infection prevention solutions, supporting some of the world's most demanding manufacturing environments.

With significant investment, innovative products and the backing of a publicly listed global organisation, this role offers exceptional career prospects for ambitious commercial professionals looking to make their mark.

The Opportunity

Working as part of a high-performing commercial team, you will be responsible for driving new business growth across pharmaceutical manufacturing, life sciences and cleanroom environments throughout the North of England.

This is a genuine business development role with a strong emphasis on identifying opportunities, winning new customers and establishing long-term strategic partnerships.

Success in opening new accounts will naturally evolve into strategic account development and key account management responsibilities as relationships mature.

The Solution

You will represent a comprehensive contamination control portfolio including:

  • Biocidal disinfectants
  • Alcohol solutions
  • Surface disinfection products
  • Hand hygiene solutions
  • Delivery and dispensing systems
  • Cleanroom wipes and contamination control consumables

However, this role goes far beyond product sales.

The organisation works collaboratively with customers to design, implement and optimise complete contamination control strategies, ensuring best practice throughout highly regulated manufacturing and cleanroom environments.

As a result, the sales process is highly consultative, solution-led and relationship-driven.

Key Responsibilities

  • Identify and secure new business opportunities across pharmaceutical and life science manufacturing environments.
  • Develop strategic relationships with key decision makers and influencers.
  • Deliver consultative contamination control solutions tailored to customer requirements.
  • Support customers with best practice processes and contamination control strategies.
  • Manage complex sales cycles involving multiple stakeholders.
  • Transition successful new business wins into long-term strategic partnerships.

About You

We are particularly interested in speaking with ambitious commercial professionals who can demonstrate:

  • A proven track record of success in new business sales.
  • Experience selling into Life Sciences, Pharmaceutical Manufacturing, Clinical Trials, Scientific or Healthcare markets.
  • A consultative and solution-led approach to sales.
  • The ability to influence multiple stakeholders throughout complex buying processes.
  • Excellent relationship building and commercial negotiation skills.
  • A strong work ethic and high levels of personal accountability.
  • A target-driven mindset with the ambition to build a long-term career within a global organisation.

Why Join?

  • Join a globally recognised leader in contamination and infection control.
  • Be part of a growing and highly successful commercial team.
  • Work with innovative solutions that directly impact product quality, compliance and patient safety.
  • Enjoy significant autonomy and the opportunity to shape your territory.
  • Excellent earning potential with uncapped commission and long-term career development opportunities.
  • Backed by the resources, reputation and stability of a major international organisation.

If you're a driven new business professional looking for a role that combines strategic selling, technical solutions and genuine career progression, we'd love to hear from you.
