Job Title: Business Development Executive

Location: Queens Square, Bristol (BS1 4NH)

Salary: £50,000 - £70,000 Base | Year 1 OTE £150,000+ | Uncapped Commission

Join One of the World's Leading B2B Growth & Events Businesses

At GDS Group, we help the world's biggest technology brands connect with senior decision-makers through market-leading events, digital experiences and innovative growth solutions. With offices across Bristol, Miami, New York and Kosovo, we operate at the intersection of technology, media, sales and innovation - partnering with global enterprises such as AWS, InterSystems, Google, Intel and IBM - to drive transformation, build pipeline and create real commercial impact. This is not a traditional sales role. It's an opportunity to work with emerging technologies, engage directly with C-suite executives and accelerate your career within a fast-paced international business.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Uncapped earning potential with realistic Year 1 OTE of £150K+


• International career opportunities across our global offices


• Work with some of the world's most innovative technology brands


• Clear progression pathways into senior sales and leadership roles


• High-performance culture with quarterly incentives, prizes and rewards


• Exposure to AI, cybersecurity, cloud, data, digital transformation and emerging tech markets


• Weekly wellness classes and a vibrant Bristol HQ environment


• Prime central Bristol location - 5 minutes from Temple Meads

What You'll Be Doing

• Identifying and engaging senior decision-makers across global technology markets


• Building new business relationships through strategic outreach, networking and consultative selling


• Working directly with innovative technology vendors and enterprise organisations


• Generating commercial opportunities and contributing to large-scale client campaigns


• Articulating GDS Group's value proposition with confidence and credibility


• Becoming a trusted commercial partner to clients operating at the forefront of digital transformation

What We're Looking For

• You're ambitious, commercially driven, and energised by winning new business.


• Ideal candidates will have:


• 3+ years' B2B sales or business development experience


• Strong cold outreach and prospecting capability (phone, LinkedIn, email)


• Confidence engaging senior stakeholders and C-level executives


• Excellent communication and presentation skills


• A proactive, resilient and target-driven mindset


• Strong organisation and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment


• Most importantly, we're looking for people with ambition, personality and the hunger to build a successful commercial career.

Why GDS Group?

• We're a globally recognised business trusted by leading brands to create meaningful business connections and transformative commercial experiences.


• Winner - Best Digital Event Production Company 2021


• Winner - Best Networking Product 2022

If you want more than just another sales role - and are looking for a business where you can genuinely accelerate your career and earning potential - we'd love to hear from you.
