Love talking to people? Thrive on the thrill of the chase? Hungry to smash targets and open doors?

This is your moment.

We’re looking for a fearless, energetic go-getter who lives for the buzz of sales and isn’t afraid to start bold conversations. As our Business Development Executive, you’ll be the powerhouse behind our outbound strategy—cold calling businesses, turning curiosity into interest, and interest into opportunity.

You won’t just dial numbers. You’ll make waves.
 
What You’ll Be Doing as Business Development Executive:

Pick up the phone and make things happen—cold call businesses and introduce our offer with confidence and clarity
Spot real potential—qualify leads and lock in meetings for our Area Sales Manager
Build a hot pipeline—nurture prospects, follow up like a pro, and keep momentum strong
Dig into target markets—do the research and identify key decision-makers
Keep it tight—update CRM systems with laser-focused notes and next steps
Collaborate like a champ—work closely with the Area Sales Manager to hand over leads seamlessly
Hit targets. Then beat them. 
What You’ll Bring to the Table:

Cold calling or outbound sales experience—you know how to get past the gatekeeper
A voice that makes people stop and listen—confident, warm, and engaging
Thick skin and tenacity—you bounce back from knock-backs and keep going
An organised brain—track calls, follow up, stay on top of your game
CRM savvy and solid Microsoft Office skills
Team spirit with a competitive edge 
You’ll Absolutely Love This Role If:

You’re naturally persuasive and love influencing people
You get a genuine buzz from booking meetings and hitting numbers
You’re driven, hungry, and never need to be told to pick up the phone
You want to be in a role where your energy and effort have real impact 
Why Join Us?
Because this isn’t your average sales support gig.
You’ll be the engine that fuels our growth, the spark that kicks off deals, and the person turning blank call sheets into packed calendars. It’s fast. It’s fun. And it’s full of potential.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are no longer just military assets—they're transforming agriculture, infrastructure inspection, logistics, filmmaking, and public safety. As commercial drone operations scale in the UK, the demand for skilled UAV professionals is rising sharply across engineering, flight operations, data analysis, and autonomous systems.

How to Find Hidden UAV Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like IMechE, RAeS & More

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, are transforming industries in the UK—from surveying, inspection, and agriculture to emergency services, logistics, and defence. As the sector evolves, so too does the demand for skilled UAV professionals: pilots, systems engineers, data analysts, AI specialists, and regulatory experts. Yet many of the best UAV jobs—especially in R&D, government contracts, and specialist commercial operations—are never advertised publicly. They’re often filled through trusted networks, working group referrals, pilot programmes, and specialist community engagement. In this guide, you’ll discover how to access hidden UAV jobs in the UK by engaging with professional bodies like the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS), APRIL (UK), and regional drone networks. You’ll learn how to use directories, CPD events, special interest groups (SIGs), and industry clusters to position yourself at the forefront of opportunity—before roles are even published.

How to Get a Better UAV Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

Whether you're a drone pilot, UAV systems engineer, geospatial analyst, flight software developer, or mechanical integrator, this guide will help you bounce back stronger after redundancy.
