Business Development Manager – Print & Marketing Solutions

Attractive Salary + Bonus + Benefits

Cork/ Little Island Territory

Are you a self-motivated, target-driven sales professional with a passion for helping businesses grow through creative marketing solutions? This is a fantastic opportunity to join a market-leading B2B & E-Commerce brand, supporting companies across Cork/ Little Island with their branding, promotional and print requirements.

The Role

As Business Development Manager, you'll take ownership of a well-established portfolio of B2B clients while driving new business opportunities through proactive outreach. This is a fast-paced, performance-focused role that requires a dynamic, adaptable individual who thrives on exceeding sales targets and delivering exceptional service.

You'll work closely with both internal teams and external suppliers to ensure seamless execution of customer projects – across print, promotional products, signage, digital and design. Relationship-building, project management, and a strong understanding of the sales process will be key to your success.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Proactively engage clients through in-person meetings, calls, emails, and video conferencing
  • Grow and retain an existing portfolio of B2B customers while consistently winning new business
  • Identify and convert leads from multiple sources, including daily email outreach
  • Oversee the delivery of client projects, liaising closely with production and supplier teams
  • Ensure all sales activity is accurately recorded on the CRM and business management system
  • Build strong, long-term relationships with clients and internal stakeholders
  • Support wider team initiatives and contribute to overall business success

What We're Looking For:

  • 3+ years' experience in a similar B2B sales role, ideally with a proven track record in exceeding targets
  • Experience in Print, Promotional Products, Signage or Design is a strong advantage, though not essential
  • Highly organised and capable of managing multiple projects simultaneously
  • Excellent communication, influencing, negotiation and closing skills
  • Strong customer focus and professional persistence
  • Confident using Microsoft Office tools; comfortable extracting data and running sales reports
  • Knowledge of ISO standards and an understanding of Health, Safety and Environmental protocols
  • Full, clean driving licence and fluency in English

What's on Offer?

In addition to a competitive base salary and uncapped performance-based bonus, you'll be part of a well-established and reputable business that offers strong team support, real autonomy in your role, and a broad product/ service portfolio to take to market.

Please note: This is an office based role with regular customer visits within the Cork/ Little Island areas.

If you're a driven sales professional in the Cork area, looking to make a real impact in a dynamic and growing business, apply now or reach out to Marty Caskey at Abrivia Recruitment in confidence.
