My client has gone from £2.8million gross profit and would like to exceed the £4million mark by the end of 2012. They are now searching for a number of Business Development Experts It is crucial that you can communicate at this level with credibility and ease. This is not a wild idea or unrealistic claim. If you are already operating at this level and know what it feels like to achieve these standards then you will understand. Perhaps a new challenge through selling a new concept is critical to your personal development and growth? If so, that is where I can help.

The concept: to allow executives access to a structured diverse leadership network, enhancing careers, solving business issues and inspiring innovation. They provide a platform where leaders can discuss and connect with other leaders. Not just based on seminars and conferences, you are given the opportunity to call upon your fellow members with ease of direction from an astute and informed Account Director. You will never have a business question or concern that goes unanswered. Why wait for the annual conference when you can just put in a call? Confidential and informative advice from your peers, outside of your otherwise insular company network, is within arm’s reach.

• A great cross-over would be HR Solutions, Recruitment or Search Solutions, Financial Services or Private Equity,
• Ability to deliver against monthly, quarterly and annual revenue targets
