Business Development Executive

London / Hybrid

Love the idea of bringing beautiful spaces to life?
Ready to take ownership of sales in a growing, design-led business where your voice counts?

This is a new and pivotal role in a fast-growing, London-based interiors brand, blending biophilic design with high-end client service.

The Role

As Business Development Executive, you'll be the first dedicated sales hire, helping to drive growth in the commercial plant installation market.
You'll focus on building relationships with developers, interior designers, architects, and office managers - anyone looking to enhance their spaces with premium plant styling.

Working closely with the founder, you'll generate leads, win new clients, and help shape proposals and tender responses.

The role is hybrid: you'll have the flexibility to work from home, with time spent visiting clients across London and occasional days in a co-working office (SW6).

It's a great opportunity to shape your own approach and build something with real long-term potential.

What You'll Be Doing

• Building a B2B pipeline across commercial interiors, workplace design, property development, and hospitality.
• Identifying new sales opportunities, setting meetings, and converting leads into long-term clients.
• Collaborating on quotes and proposals for high-specification plant installations.
• Representing Plant Drop at events, industry meetups, and client showrooms.
• Using Salesforce to track activity and ensure strong communication across the team.

What You'll Need

• Proven B2B sales experience (5+ years).
• Ideally, experience in plant sales, interior design, fit-outs, office furniture, or a related design-led field.
• Confident selling to commercial clients like architects, developers, and office managers.
• Strong communication and presentation skills - someone who understands high-end clients.
• Based in or near London, with willingness to travel into the city 2-3 days per week for meetings.
• Comfortable using Salesforce (or similar CRM).

What You'll Get

• Competitive base salary, depending on experience.
• Uncapped commission
• Paid London travel for meetings.
• Flexible hybrid working.
• Access to a co-working space
• Casual dress, supportive team, and creative work environment.
• A chance to make your mark in a growing business and shape a new division.
