Business Development

Business development in the broader sense is a skill and function that can be overlooked.

This typically involves taking a step back and looking for useful connections and opportunities.

Such opportunities may not fit within an existing department or remit but can deliver significant value:

Building a cross-industry network
Benchmarking & measurement
Applying innovation
Seeking ways of adding value
Connecting with government
Value engineering - reducing cost whilst maintaining service
Create or enhance the sales strategy

CLIENT AGENT

You often need a safe and dependable pair of hands to represent your best interest on occasions when you or your team lack experience, time or resource.

This is typically in an operational or business development role but doesn't have to be. Projects include capital or premises works, the development or change of an aspect of the organisation such as website, a capital bid, new build or re-furbishment.

Specific functions/roles include:

Procurement
Tendering & capital bids
Project management
Professional team creation
Customer & supplier contract negotiations
