Business Development Manager - Electrical Services Join a business with national backing Sell electrical service solutions and grow your market profile Location: Perth metro WA RETAINED SEARCH / EXCLUSIVE LISTING About our client Our client is a WA-based service business operating under established ownership with backing from a national group. In Perth, this role will sit in a local hub with direct access to key leaders and internal support across sales, service delivery and account management. The business is building its electrical services capability as a newer division, creating an opening for someone who can help establish market position and win new work. This opportunity sits within a part of the market that is less saturated than HVAC for tenders, giving the successful candidate a clearer path to pursue service contracts on value rather than price alone. The role will also leverage existing technical capability already in the business, supported by onboarding across logistics, stakeholders, pricing structures, and internal systems. From a candidate perspective, this offers the chance to join a business with infrastructure already in place while still contributing to a growth phase in WA. About the opportunity This is a dynamic business development role focused on generating new electrical service revenue across WA while supporting account retention and business scaling. The position will suit someone who wants more than a lateral move and is looking to build a longer-term career by helping shape a newer service line within an established business. In this role, you will: Secure new electrical service contracts across WA Develop sales strategies for commercial and industrial clients Prepare proposals, quotations and tender submissions Manage key client relationships and identify upsell pathways Support process improvement, resource planning and business scaling In the first phase of employment, you will build internal relationships, learn the CRM and pricing tools, understand the bid process, and work with technical teams to position the service offering in market. Over time, this role can develop into a broader leadership contribution as the division grows. For the right person, this is a chance to build market presence, strengthen commercial capability and contribute to where the business is heading over the next three to five years. About you We are looking for someone with a track record in winning new business, managing client relationships and converting service opportunities into ongoing contracts. You will be commercially focused, comfortable in a competitive market and able to engage both clients and internal stakeholders. This role will suit a person who enjoys hunting for new opportunities and can also maintain service standards across live accounts. To be successful in this role, you will ideally have: Proven success in business development roles Experience selling services in electrical, FM or trade sectors Capability in tenders, proposals, quoting and presentations Strong commercial judgement and the ability to sell on value Experience building relationships with commercial or industrial clients Confidence using CRM, pricing and marketing tools Strong skills in Excel, Word and PowerPoint Exposure to KPOs linked to growth, retention and process improvement A trade or technical background is useful but not essential You will also bring persistence, internal selling skills, and the ability to work across technical and operational teams in a corporate environment. What's on offer This role offers the chance to join our client at a point where the electrical services division is building momentum in WA. Rather than stepping into a fully defined lane, you will have scope to influence how the market is approached, how opportunities are qualified, and how internal capability is used to support growth. For candidates who are motivated by impact, this creates a clear link between effort and outcome. You will work closely with leaders in Perth, with support from established stakeholders across pricing, bids, onboarding and account management. The business can provide structure, systems, and technical backing, while the role itself offers room to build market presence and credibility. This is well-suited to someone who wants a role with support behind it, but with enough space to create results, strengthen client relationships, and contribute to a developing service line.
