What employers expect from a Business Development Manager
Business development managers open what does not exist yet: new applications, new industries, new regions. It is hunting in its purest form.
Business development managers find revenue that does not exist yet: new industries for an existing product, new regions, new applications or partnerships. The role is analytical and entrepreneurial at once – market studies and target lists on one day, first meetings at management level on the next. Employers want hunters with a strategic head who can hand a developed market over to the regular sales team.
Selling in Automotive
Automotive and mobility sales means supplying OEMs and tier-1s with components, battery systems, production equipment and test technology – nomination cycles run for years, volumes are huge and technical project management is part of the job.
Automotive sales runs on nominations: a project is won years before start of production and then delivers volume for the life of the vehicle platform. Sales and key account managers lead RFQs, coordinate engineering changes and negotiate annual price reductions with professional purchasing organisations. Experience with OEM or tier-1 processes, quality requirements and the shift to electric drivetrains is what employers pay a premium for.
