Business Development Manager - Healthcare, Manchester

Make your success mean something

We believe great care starts with great people.

Every call we make, every relationship we build and every service we support has the potential to change someone's life. Behind every shift is a real person relying on someone to be there, to provide exceptional care, protect their dignity and give them the support they deserve.

We're looking for someone with the passion and drive to help us reach more services, build more partnerships and make that difference to more people.

If you want to succeed in sales, but also want your success to mean something, this could be the role for you.

The role

• This is a new business role with real ownership.
• You'll be responsible for your own geographical patch, building relationships with care homes, nursing homes, supported living services and other care providers.
• You'll open new doors, reconnect with services that have previously worked with Cucumber and turn conversations into long term partnerships.
• And when you win the business, you own it.
• You'll be commercially and operationally responsible for your area, growing your accounts, overseeing bookings and making sure your clients receive an exceptional service.
• But you won't be doing it the old fashioned way.
• Cucumber is investing heavily in advanced AI and automation, removing the repetitive admin that traditionally slows recruitment teams down. From intelligent booking support to automated call notes and operational processes, our technology is designed to give you more time to do what humans do best, build relationships, solve problems and grow your region.

What you'll be doing

• Winning new healthcare clients within your area

• Making outbound calls and creating new business opportunities

• Building relationships with care managers and key decision makers

• Reconnecting with previous Cucumber clients

• Booking and attending client meetings

• Developing and managing your own sales pipeline

• Growing the accounts you win

• Taking operational ownership of your geographical area

• Overseeing bookings and ensuring your clients receive a brilliant service

• Using our AI and technology to work smarter and spend less time on repetitive admin

Who we're looking for:

• We're looking for someone with energy, resilience, ambition and a genuine passion for people.
• You don't need to come from healthcare recruitment. If you've succeeded in telesales, business development, recruitment, account management or another target driven sales environment, we want to hear from you.
• You need to be confident picking up the phone, comfortable hearing no and determined enough to keep going until you get a yes.
• We want someone who wants ownership. Someone who doesn't just want a list of accounts to manage, but wants to build their own area, develop relationships, win business and see the results of what they've created.
• Most importantly, we want someone who cares about what they're selling and understands that behind the numbers are real people whose lives can be impacted by the quality of care they receive.

What you'll get

• £30,000 basic salary
• Uncapped commission
• £50,000+ OTE
• Your own geographical area to build and grow
• Advanced AI and technology to support your day to day role
• Full training and support
• Established recruitment and operational support around you
• Genuine ownership of the business you develop
• The opportunity to build something that's genuinely yours

If you're ambitious, passionate about people and know how to sell, we want to hear from you.

Come and build your area, grow your earnings and help us make a difference where it really matters.
