Business Development Manager

South Manchester - Hybrid - 1 DAY IN OFFICE

£35,000 – £45,000 Basic (DOE) + Uncapped Monthly Commission (£50k–£65k+ OTE)

Tired of filling hard-to-find temp vacancies or capped on commission at your current umbrella provider?

Following sustained growth across the UK contract recruitment market, they are looking for a commercially driven Business Development Manager to own, grow, and win Preferred Supplier Lists (PSLs) with recruitment agencies nationwide.

This isn’t a back-office admin seat or a high-volume B2C contractor call centre. You’ll be operating B2B - building relationships with Recruitment Directors, Managing Consultants, and 360 contract recruiters to become their go-to compliant payroll partner.

What’s in It for You?

• £35,000–£45,000 basic + uncapped commission
• Genuine Hybrid Flexibility: Just 1 day per week in the South Manchester office once up and running for experienced umbrella hires (around 3 days/week initially for agency recruiters transitioning into the sector).
• Inherit an active portfolio of agency accounts alongside full opportunities to win new business
• Collaborative team environment: Join a friendly, driven sales team where people support one another, share ideas and celebrate success together.
• Clear progression

What Will You Be Doing?

• Winning New Agency Partnerships: Proactively identify, pitch, and onboard UK recruitment agencies to secure new PSL slots and steady contractor referral pipelines.
• Growing Existing Agency Accounts: Build strong relationships with Recruitment Directors, Managing Consultants, and 360 contract recruiters to maximise contractor referrals.
• Consultative Compliance & Payroll Support: Advise agency partners on compliant PAYE umbrella payroll, IR35, and smooth contractor onboarding.

What we are looking for?

Experienced Umbrella / Contractor Payroll Sales: You already work in B2B agency sales, Business Development, or Account Management at an FCSA-accredited umbrella or contractor accountancy firm, with a strong grasp of agency PSLs and contractor referrals.

360 Contract / Temp Recruitment Consultants (2+ Years): You have a proven track record running a 360 temporary, interim, or contract recruitment desk. You understand how contractors and umbrella referrals work, love the client-facing side, and want to step away from candidate resourcing into pure B2B account growth.
