We are looking for a highly motivated and proactive Business Development Manager to spearhead this crucial expansion. This isn't about maintaining the status quo; it's about pioneering a vital new revenue stream and unlocking the immense potential of industrial scrap.

  • Exceptional relationship-building skills and proven gravitas to engage with key industry stakeholders.

  • This is a high-visibility, high-impact role with significant potential for career development as this new industrial division grows.
