Business Development Executive

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

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

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.

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