Business Development Manager (R&D)
Location: Remote (UK)
Salary: £40,000 to £50,000 DOE, plus uncapped comms
Type: Full-time
At Harmoney, we help UK companies unlock the full value of R&D tax relief. It’s a space that’s often overlooked or misunderstood, and we make the process straightforward, valuable and genuinely rewarding for our clients.
As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a talented Business Development Manager to join us at a Partner level internally — someone who can take ownership, build lasting relationships, and drive new client growth with confidence and integrity.
If you’re motivated by impact, autonomy and commercial reward, this could be a great fit.
What the role looks like
You’ll be responsible for identifying new opportunities and managing the full sales process — from first outreach through to signed engagement. You’ll be supported by a great internal team who’ll help you with lead generation, but you’ll have the freedom to drive your own success.
As a Partner, you’ll be trusted as a senior commercial voice in the business — someone who works independently, builds meaningful client relationships and plays a hands-on role in how we grow.
What you’ll be doing
*
Reaching out to UK businesses to introduce Harmoney’s R&D tax relief services
*
Leading meetings with senior decision-makers, either remotely or in person
*
Building strong, consultative relationships with new clients
*
Clearly explaining how the R&D scheme works and how we help
*
Working closely with our internal associates who support with appointment setting
*
Managing your pipeline and sharing performance insights with the team
What we're looking for
*
Proven experience in business development, sales, or partnerships
*
Confidence in leading conversations and building trust quickly
*
Experience selling into non-traditional sectors like manufacturing, engineering, construction, or similar industries is a strong plus
*
A genuine interest in supporting business growth
Nice-to-Have: Familiarity with R&D tax relief is helpful, but not essential — we’ll provide training
What you’ll get from us
*
A base salary of £40,000 to £50,000 depending on experience
*
Uncapped bonuses based on performance - OTE (£95,000 - £100,000)
*
Qualified leads and appointment-setting support from our in-house team
*
Full onboarding and ongoing training
*
Flexibility to work remotely, with hybrid options available if you prefer
*
The chance to build long-term client relationships and play a senior role in our growth
