Business Development Manager – Newcastle
Business Development Manager – Newcastle
A senior commercial role within a UK port operator with deep‑water access, recent land development and the capacity to open new trade lanes.
This position sits in a small, established commercial team and carries responsibility for proactive market development rather than account maintenance. The focus is on building cargo flows that do not yet exist, particularly across automotive, bulk and project cargo.
There is space to shape how sales is done. Time in the market. Access to senior decision makers. And enough autonomy to turn relationships into volume.
Hybrid working is in place, with regular on‑site presence required.
- Develop new cargo volumes across automotive, bulk and project sectors
- Build and convert a live pipeline with shippers, forwarders and supply chain partners
- Contribute to the commercial direction of newly available port land and quay capacity
Key experience required
- Proven sales or business development within ports, shipping, automotive logistics, bulk or project cargo
- Direct exposure to port operations, port‑centric supply chains or shipping customers
- An established industry network that converts into transactions, not just conversations
