Fractional Business Development Manager

Fractional Business Development Manager (Contract/Fractional) – UK

We’re supporting a specialist consultancy delivering programmes across power-led infrastructure (including power, grid, renewables and data centres), with additional exposure across utilities and MEP within property/real estate.

They’re looking for a Fractional Business Development Manager who can act as a credible “door opener”, someone who can bring warm, commercial introductions and help generate commissions / opportunities via access to senior decision-makers. This is not a delivery execution hire – it’s about pipeline creation and strategic introductions.

What you’ll be doing

• Opening doors to senior stakeholders and decision-makers across relevant sectors
• Creating and converting a pipeline of qualified commercial opportunities
• Leveraging your network to enable warm introductions and accelerate conversations
• Working closely with the leadership team to align targets, messaging, and priority accounts

What we’re looking for

• Proven background in business development / account opening within power / grid / renewables / data centres (Utilities / major infrastructure, and MEP would be a nice to have)
• Strong network and credibility with C-suite / Director-level buyers
• Comfortable in a fractional / flexible engagement model
• Able to interview and start quickly

Why apply?

• Flexible, fractional engagement — work from anywhere
• High-impact remit focused on commercial outcomes
• Urgent requirement with ASAP interviews
• Opportunity to secure and shape new work streams ahead of the client’s upcoming project end dates (October)

Interested? Reply with your CV/profile and a brief note on:

1. sectors you can open doors in (power/grid/renewables/data centres/utilities/MEP)
2. the level of stakeholders you typically engage (Director/VP/C-suite)
3. your preferred fractional model (e.g., retainer + success fee, days per month, etc.)
