About the Company
Our client is an internationally recognized leader providing high-value engineered solutions primarily to the pharmaceutical and life sciences manufacturing sector. They have decades of experience and well-founded relationships with major pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities across Ireland, boasting a strong brand reputation and increasingly growing commercial footprint within the Irish market.
Role Overview
As the Business Development Manager covering the Leinster region—with around 60% of your efforts focused on Dublin and its surrounding areas—you will sell a diverse portfolio of technical, solution-oriented products and services directly to pharmaceutical and life sciences manufacturers. This senior commercial position entails a balanced focus on strategic new business development and key account management within a relationship-centric, high-value sector.
You will engage with a range of senior stakeholders including engineering managers, operations leaders, procurement heads, and site directors, handling intricate sales processes and successfully closing substantial deals. Managing existing key accounts in your territory is essential, while proactively uncovering and pursuing new, large-scale projects.
Comprehensive technical and commercial training is provided alongside strong, ongoing support from a well-established Irish team, enabling a smooth integration from day one.
Candidate Profile
The ideal candidate is an experienced professional in technical or industrial sales with a history of engaging pharmaceutical or food and beverage manufacturers within Ireland. You must be familiar with selling into regulated, sophisticated manufacturing environments and confident in liaising with senior stakeholders.
Preferably, you will bring experience in capital equipment, engineered solutions, technical services, or high-value industrial products. A consultative selling mindset, proven success in winning and expanding business, as well as thriving in long, complex sales cycles, are critical attributes.
You should demonstrate commercial acumen, professionalism, ambition, and ownership of your sales territory. A full, clean Irish driving license is mandatory. While candidates based in Dublin or Greater Dublin are preferred, exceptional candidates elsewhere in Leinster will be considered.
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive base salary ranging from €60,000 to €70,000, dependent on experience
- On-target earnings (OTE) of €20,000 with no upper limit
- Company-provided car
- Mobile phone and laptop supplied
- Contributory pension scheme
- Comprehensive benefits package
