Are you looking for a technical business development role as part of a company with an excellent reputation for service, quality, and lead times? If you like being on the road, meeting with customers, working with engineers, and enjoy opening new markets and revenue streams, this could be a brilliant fit for you! 

I’m working with a business that has been steadily growing, and they have created this role to continue that growth. Historically, they have been very successful with business coming from word of mouth and incoming enquiries, so the opportunity to develop new business is huge. We are looking for a solution focused technical salesperson, as your customer will know the issue they are trying to solve, but not necessarily the best solution to solve it – that’s where your expertise will come in.

You will be selling their technical services across many industries, such as aerospace, medical, and automotive. You're encouraged to be out and about meeting with customers, with the rest of your time liaising internally with the technical teams to ensure your solutions are brought to life.

The Candidate: Business Development Manager
The ideal candidate will come from a technical engineering background, with exceptional communication skills and a customer-first mindset. We are also looking for someone with:

A proven track record of generating new business.
The ability to read and understand engineering drawings.
Excellent communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to turn leads into profitable opportunities.
Great organisational skills
A proactive and results-driven approach, able to work independently and as part of a team

Space Sector Jobs Skills Radar 2026: Emerging Tools, Technologies & Platforms to Learn Now

From launch vehicles and CubeSats to space-based communications, climate monitoring, and lunar exploration—UK space jobs are entering a bold new era. With government investment, private capital, and ESA partnerships driving growth, demand is surging for professionals with the right skills to build and sustain this expanding space economy. Welcome to the Space Sector Jobs Skills Radar 2026—your annual guide to the engineering tools, simulation platforms, programming languages and mission technologies that UK employers are prioritising. Whether you're an aerospace graduate, software engineer, or systems integrator, this radar helps you target the future of UK space careers.

How to Find Hidden Space Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like the RAeS, UKSpace & More

The UK space sector is enjoying rapid growth—driven by satellite constellations, launch services, Earth observation, space science, and defence applications. But while demand for engineers, scientists, mission designers, and space analysts is high, many of the most compelling roles are never advertised publicly. Instead, these opportunities are often filled through professional networks, working groups, innovation clusters, and academic-industry partnerships. This guide will show you how to access hidden UK space jobs by engaging with bodies like the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS), UKSpace, British Interplanetary Society (BIS), and regional space clusters. By leveraging membership directories, special-interest groups (SIGs), CPD events, and funded projects, you can position yourself to be first in line—even before roles are posted.

How to Get a Better Space Sector Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

Being made redundant from a role in the UK space sector can be disheartening. Whether your work was tied to satellite design, launch services, ground systems, mission operations, or Earth observation analytics, the experience and specialist knowledge you've gained is still highly valuable. The UK government’s Space Strategy, increased commercial investment, and new launch initiatives across Cornwall, Scotland, and Wales continue to drive opportunities in upstream and downstream space technologies. This guide will help you relaunch your career in the UK space sector after redundancy.
