Job Description

What this role covers

Overview:

We are hiring a Business Development Manager for a boutique wealth advisory company in the Financial Services industry. This is a Part-Time remote role for a UK-based company, focusing on the "last mile" of the relationship funnel. While our marketing builds authority, this role is responsible for high-touch relationship stewardship—converting high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) and professional introducers (accountants, solicitors) into qualified consultations. The ideal candidate is a sophisticated, credible communicator who excels at patient, value-led nurture over high-pressure sales.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Nurture HNW relationships: Manage the lead journey for wealthy individuals and B2B partners through personalized, high-trust outreach.

  • Fill monthly events: Own the guest list for private lunches; manage invites and use VOIP calls to ensure 10–12 qualified attendees show up.

  • Build partner pipelines: Research and contact UK accountants and solicitors to establish formal referral networks.

  • Coordinate consultations: Manage the Principal’s calendar and provide detailed research briefs before discovery meetings.

  • Optimize messaging: Partner with the Marketing Coordinator to refine scripts and talk-tracks based on prospect feedback.

  • Maintain CRM hygiene: Meticulously track all pipeline activity and next actions to ensure no lead is dropped.

  • Report on KPIs: Provide weekly updates on lead quality, event registration rates, and meeting conversions.

Required Qualifications:

  • 5+ years in B2B sales: Proven track record in high-ticket relationship management or professional services.

  • Exceptional English written skills and a clear, professional accent for UK-based VOIP calling.

  • Nurture-first mindset: Skilled at building long-term trust rather than using "hard-sell" tactics.

  • High autonomy: Ability to research prospects and provide strategic recommendations to leadership independently.

  • UK market savvy: Deep understanding of British professional etiquette and corporate nuances.

  • CRM & Tech literate: Highly proficient in managing sales pipelines and digital outreach tools.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Wealth management background: Prior experience in UK-regulated financial or advisory sectors.

  • LinkedIn: Experienced user of Sales Navigator for prospecting and relationship tracking.

  • Systems proficient: Experienced with HubSpot, Endole, and professional VOIP tools.

  • Compliance aware: Familiar with UK financial promotion rules and non-advisory boundaries.

  • Networked: Existing understanding of the UK accountant and solicitor referral landscape.

Required Skills & Tools:

  • LinkedIn Sales Navigator

  • VOIP Calling Tools (UK/London-based number)

  • CRM Proficiency (Pipeline management and hygiene)

  • Intelligence Tools (e.g., Endole or similar UK company datasets)

  • Office 365 / Google Workspace

Schedule & Pay:

  • Part-Time position; approximately 20 hours per week within core UK calling windows (GMT/BST).

  • Fully remote role.

  • Pay: ZAR 20,000 - 23,000 per Month (Part-time).

System Requirements:

  • Internet speed of at least 20 Mbps upload and download

  • Computer with a 2.4 GHz processor or higher

  • 8 GB of RAM or higher

  • Windows 10 or newer, or Mac OS X 10.10 or newer

  • HD 720p webcam

  • Headset with microphone

Benefits:

  • Competitive pay rates

  • Consistent hours and predictable workload

  • Fully remote work with long-term potential

  • Direct collaboration with a senior leadership team, making a real impact

  • Supportive and inclusive work environment

  • Opportunity to grow alongside a boutique wealth advisory program
