Founding Business Development Manager

Greenmile Networks \| London (Southwark) \| Full\-Time, Permanent £35,000 \- £40,000 base \+ uncapped commission OTE: £60,000\+ (Year 1\) \| £80,000\+ (Year 2\) \| £100,000\+ (Year 3\)

The Opportunity

This is Greenmile’s first dedicated sales hire. There is no existing pipeline to pick up; you will be starting from scratch, building a client base, and shaping the commercial future of a sustainable logistics leader.

Who We Are

Greenmile Networks is a London logistics provider operating from our Southwark hub. We provide same\-day courier services using a zero\-emission e\-cargo fleet, national parcel and freight distribution through 40\+ carrier partners, and international shipping. As part of the Diamond Logistics network, we provide the infrastructure of a national powerhouse with the agility of a local specialist.

The Role

You will be responsible for winning new business across London and the South East. The full sales cycle sits with you: from cold prospecting and running discovery meetings to building complex commercial proposals and closing contracts.

Key Responsibilities:

· Prospecting via cold calls, LinkedIn, and face\-to\-face networking.

· Calculating and presenting commercial proposals involving carrier rates and volumetrics.

· Negotiating terms and closing high\-value B2B contracts.

· Managing your pipeline via HubSpot and onboarding new clients personally.

· Working directly with the Founder to refine our sales strategy.

What We Are Looking For (Mandatory)

This is a technical sales role. To hit the ground running, the following experience is essential:

· Industry Experience: Minimum 3\+ years of B2B sales experience specifically within Logistics, Courier, Freight, or Parcel Distribution.

· Technical Proficiency: You must have a working knowledge of volumetrics, carrier rate structures, pallet distribution, and storage billing. We are looking for a candidate who can price a multi\-carrier solution on day one without training on industry fundamentals.

· Pipeline Generation: A proven track record of generating your own leads and closing deals from scratch.

· Commercial Acumen: Ability to hold high\-level conversations with Operations Directors and Finance Leads regarding cost\-per\-consignment and supply chain efficiency.

· Self\-Starter: You must be comfortable working autonomously in a "Founding" role where you set the pace.

What You’ll Get

· Base Salary: £35,000 \- £40,000 (dependent on industry experience).

· Uncapped Commission: Paid monthly on the revenue you generate. No "threshold"\- you earn from your first deal.

· Growth: Direct access to the Founder and the opportunity to lead the sales function as the team expands.

· The Product: A market\-leading proposition: zero\-emission last\-mile delivery combined with a massive national carrier network.

Practical Details

· Location: Based at our Southwark hub with travel across London.

· Holiday: 25 days \+ bank holidays.

· Start Date: June 2026\.
