BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER
Airstream International Group is a small and successful Surrey based company specialising in arranging the sale and lease of commercial aircraft. The company has been successfully trading since 1989.
Airstream are looking to recruit a business development professional who is keen to develop a career in this exciting international industry.
The successful candidate will be expected to adapt quickly to this challenging environment, acquiring the necessary skills and industry knowledge through direct involvement in complex high value international transactions and on the job training.
He/she will be required to undertake a number of tasks and functions focused on promoting the company in its chosen markets and working with the Directors to source manage and close aircraft sale and lease transactions. The role will grow over time to involve direct responsibility in transaction management and closing.
Specific tasks and responsibilities will include:
The successful applicant will be self-motivated and enthusiastic and capable of working in a small team in a results orientated sales environment with minimum supervision. Good communication skills, both written and oral are essential, as is an ability to present well and develop business relationships at senior level. A willingness to travel internationally, often at short notice, is a pre-requisite of the job.
Ideally you will have 12-36 months experience of working in a commercial/sales environment where you will have been able to demonstrate your sales, communication and organisational skills. In this role, you will have been successful at generating leads and managing customer relationships throughout the sales process.
A knowledge of or interest in aviation and the aircraft/airline industry would be particularly beneficial, but not essential. The ability to communicate in a foreign language would also be useful, but not essential.
Airstream will offer the successful applicant an attractive salary and performance orientated bonus commensurate with experience and ability.
