Business Development Manager

Confidence by design. At HomePro — part of DIY Group, the team behind DIYblinds — we partner with builders, designers, architects and developers to deliver custom-made window furnishing solutions, from specification through to completion.

We make window furnishings the most considered part of the build, not the most complicated. It starts with the right partnership: someone who understands how a builder works and what each stage of a project demands, so the solution feels right for the space and fits seamlessly into the wider build.

Right now, there's more opportunity out there than we're chasing. That's where this role comes in.

We're looking for a Business Development Manager to go out and win new business for HomePro Trade. Reporting to our Head of Partnerships, you'll build and own the new business pipeline — identifying opportunities, picking up the phone to people you've never met, and turning cold introductions into long-term partnerships. Once a deal is ready to be quoted and specified, you'll hand it to our Account Management team to see it through — your job is the win.

This is a highly autonomous, build-it-yourself role — real scope to shape how HomePro goes after new business, backed by a team that wants to see you succeed.

What you'll be doing

•      Identify and pursue new business across multi-residential builders, volume builders, construction companies, developers and architects.

•      Generate your own leads through cold outreach, direct introductions and referral networks — no warm list required.

•      Monitor tender platforms and get in front of opportunities we're not yet entertaining.

•      Prepare and submit tender responses, quotes and proposal documentation that make it easy for clients to say yes.

•      Get out to industry and trade events to build HomePro's profile and presence in the market.

•      Own the client relationship from first contact through to handover, then partner closely with our Account Management team so nothing drops.

•      Keep your pipeline — and your CRM — accurate and up to date.

What we're looking for

•      Proven experience in business development, sales or account management, with a track record of winning new business.

•      Confidence starting conversations with people you've never met, and turning them into real opportunities.

•      Experience preparing tenders, quotes and proposals.

•      A highly self-motivated operator who thrives with autonomy and doesn't need close supervision.

•      Strong negotiation, presentation and commercial acumen.

•      Experience in construction, building products or a related trade/design category (e.g. lighting, interior design, home furnishings) is highly regarded, as is exposure to multi-residential builders, developers or architects.

•      A current, full driver's licence — you'll be on the road visiting clients as much as you're in the office.

Why HomePro

•      Real ownership of a new business function, built largely from scratch.

•      A genuinely strong product to sell — Australian-made, fast turnaround and backed by professional installation, so you're opening doors with a partner builders can rely on.

•      Direct line of sight between the deals you win and the impact you have on the business.

•      A collaborative, no-egos team that backs each other to get things done.

•      Competitive base salary plus performance incentive.

•      The backing, scale and momentum of DIY Group, a genuinely fast-growing business that isn't afraid to do things differently.

If you're a natural at opening doors, love the thrill of winning new business, and want to build something that's genuinely yours, we'd love to hear from you.
