We’re BDO. An accountancy and business advisory firm, providing the advice and solutions entrepreneurial organisations need to navigate today’s changing world.
We work with the companies that are Britain’s economic engine – ambitious, entrepreneurially-spirited and high growth businesses that fuel the economy - and directly advise the owners and management teams that lead them.
Our Sales and Marketing team is being reshaped to directly support BDO’s growth ambitions. We’re building a high-performing function that is proud of its technical skills, reliable in delivery, and outcome-led in how we prioritise and execute. You’ll join a team big enough to offer diverse roles and opportunities, big priorities and commercial challenges, yet personal enough to ensure you’re supported and empowered from day one.
Here, we think beyond activity. You’ll bring ideas, fresh thinking and help shape how we deliver campaigns, insights and engagement across the business. Working closely with internal clients, you’ll deepen your understanding of our sectors and add value in your role
From strategic storytelling to capability building and smarter ways of working, you’ll grow your skills while working with people who care about doing the right thing and doing it well.
Leading organisations trust us because of the quality of our advice. That quality grows from a thorough understanding of their business, and that understanding comes from working closely with them and building long-lasting relationships.
You’ll be someone who is both comfortable working pro-actively and managing your own tasks, as well as confident collaborating with others and communicating regularly with senior managers, directors, and BDO’s partners to help businesses effectively. You’ll be encouraged to identify and draw attention to opportunities for enhancing our delivery and providing additional services to organisations we work with.
The Sales and Marketing team are looking to recruit a Senior Manager in Business Development Enablement for maternity cover for a 12 month fixed term contract
The Senior Manager is deployed into a defined area of the business and is responsible for developing and delivering an business development enablement (activation) strategy and plan aligned to growth and market priority areas, including the firm’s Target and Priority Client programmes. The role builds sponsorship and shared agreement with senior stakeholders on partner routines, business development focus and success measures, and ensures activity is delivered through business development standards and ways of working.
Working closely with the Head of Business Development Enablement, this role connects firm direction to local execution—maximising adoption of central Proposition Packs and business development Packs, identifying gaps, and coordinating cross-functional collaboration to enable solution-led selling. The role acts as a change agent by embedding best practice, improving adoption, and using insight and KPIs to drive interventions.
Develop and maintain a business development enablement strategy and deployment plan for the area, translating firm priorities into practical partner routines and actions.
Build shared agreement with senior business stakeholders on activation priorities, cohorts, cadence, responsibilities and measures.
Ensure the deployment plan explicitly covers relevant Target and Priority Client programme needs, including partner routines and follow-through expectations.
Align local plans to the wider business development portfolio and capacity assumptions with the Head of Business Development Enablement.
Define priority audiences and buyer types for local priorities; ensure routines, talk tracks and materials reflect buyer needs, objections and decision patterns.
Ensure business development work remains solution-led by connecting buyer needs to the firm’s solutions, proof points and differentiators.
Maintain a clear view of local buyer insight and feed relevant learning into Proposition Pack owners and the wider business development community.
Ensure central Proposition Packs and Business Development Packs are used locally and stakeholders understand what to use and when.
Lead delivery of business development activity locally, ensuring stakeholder readiness, clear ownership and disciplined follow-through.
Provide consistent inputs to monthly performance reporting: what was delivered, what’s working, what changed and what needs to improve.
Strong experience in sales enablement/business development/commercial mobilisation within a complex B2B environment.
Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and mobilise partner cohorts through routines and coaching.
Strong buyer/audience understanding and ability to translate insight into activation.
Strong programme delivery and risk management capability with multiple dependencies.
Comfortable using metrics and dashboards to drive action and improvement.
