Business Development Manager

At SIG Roofing, we're proud to support roofers, contractors, and merchants across the UK with quality roofing products, technical expertise, and outstanding service. With over 100 branches nationwide and more than 40 years of industry experience, we've built a reputation for helping our customers get the job done right.

We are looking for an experienced Business Development Manager to support customers across our South Region.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys building strong customer relationships, managing projects through their lifecycle, and acting as a trusted advisor. The role combines project management, account development, customer support, and commercial responsibility, with a focus on ensuring customers receive an outstanding experience from enquiry through to project completion.

Unlike a traditional sales role, success comes from developing long-term relationships, identifying opportunities within active projects, and working collaboratively with our branch network to grow our customer base and maximise regional opportunities.

What you'll be doing:

• Customer & Project Management

• Build and maintain strong partnerships with key customers across the region.
• Manage roofing projects and opportunities from initial enquiry through to completion.
• Act as the primary point of contact for customers, providing guidance, support, and regular progress updates throughout the project lifecycle.
• Ensure customers receive a consistently high standard of service, helping to build loyalty and long-term relationships.
• Monitor project activity and maintain accurate records to ensure opportunities progress successfully through each stage.

• Business Development & Growth

• Work closely with branch teams to identify opportunities, strengthen customer relationships, and grow the regional customer base.
• Develop new business through collaboration with the branch network, ensuring local opportunities are identified, nurtured, and converted into long-term customer partnerships.
• Identify opportunities to increase customer spend, grow market share, and maximise the value of both existing and new customer relationships.
• Maintain awareness of market activity, competitor movements, and upcoming projects within the region.

• Commercial & Internal Collaboration

• Work with pricing, technical, branch, and supply chain teams to deliver competitive and commercially viable solutions.
• Provide accurate project forecasting, pipeline updates, and business reporting.
• Support the achievement of regional sales and profitability targets through effective project and account management.
• Collaborate effectively with internal stakeholders to ensure seamless communication and customer support.

What we're looking for:

• We're interested in hearing from candidates who can demonstrate:

• Experience in account management, business development, project coordination, customer success, or a similar customer-facing role.
• Strong relationship-building skills with the ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels.
• Experience managing multiple projects, opportunities, or customer accounts simultaneously.
• Commercial awareness and confidence discussing pricing, margins, and customer value.
• Strong organisational, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• A proactive approach and the ability to keep projects moving forward while maintaining excellent customer communication.
• The ability to work collaboratively across a range of internal and external stakeholders.
• Experience within roofing, construction, or building materials would be advantageous but is not essential.

In return we offer:

• Highly Competitive salary with annual pay award and excellent bonus scheme
• 25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays. Company closed during Christmas period.
• A great pension, with SIG contributing up to 7.5% and up to 4x life insurance.
• Car allowance
• Money saving with retail discounts via colleague portal
• Cycle to Work scheme.
• Share Incentive Scheme
