Orion Partner Plus is proud to be working with an established and fast-growing company in the materials and converting industry to identify a Business Development Manager. This is a key commercial role focused on driving revenue growth through deep customer relationships and market expansion — all within a dynamic, family-run business.
The Opportunity
Following a recent acquisition and strategic expansion, our client is entering an exciting new phase of growth. As Business Development Manager, you’ll take the lead on identifying new business opportunities, expanding key accounts, and developing market presence in both established and emerging sectors.
You’ll work closely with leadership and cross-functional teams to shape the company’s commercial direction — delivering value-driven solutions to clients, driving revenue, and making a measurable impact.
Key Responsibilities:
This is a rare opportunity to join a family-run business with deep roots, strong values, and a genuine commitment to its people and customers. You’ll be part of a close-knit, supportive team that values transparency, trust, and long-term relationships — both internally and with clients. With a flat structure and entrepreneurial culture, your voice will be heard, your impact will be felt, and your growth will be supported. If you’re looking for a role where you can build lasting relationships, drive meaningful growth, and feel truly connected to the company’s mission, this is it.
Our role in supporting diversity and inclusion
As an international workforce business, we are committed to sourcing personnel that reflects the diversity and values of our client base but also that of Orion Group. We welcome the wide range of experiences and viewpoints that potential workers bring to our business and our clients, including those based on nationality, gender, culture, educational and professional backgrounds, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, disability, and age differences, job classification and religion. In our inclusive workplace, regardless of your employment status as staff or contract, everyone is assured the right of equitable, fair and respectful treatment.
