You will work across the greater Ipswich / Springfield area, developing new business within our key market sectors, such as schools, local
government/council,
hospitals, retirement villages, shopping centres and commercial property owners, while leveraging Higgins' reputation, capability and national support network.

What success looks like
n
n
Building a strong local presence through proactive prospecting, networking, referrals, consistent follow-up and direct engagement with decision-makers.
n
Turning early conversations into booked site meetings, qualified opportunities, practical solutions, proposals and long‐term customer relationships.
n
Keeping a healthy pipeline moving through disciplined prospecting, strong qualification, reliable CRM use and clear next steps.
n
Working with our operations teams to scope projects, prepare solution‐based proposals and support a smooth handover when work is won.
n
n
What you'll bring
n
n
Proven success in B2B recent business development, including prospecting, qualifying opportunities, booking meetings and converting leads into wins – account management experience is less important in this role.

A practical, down‐to‐earth communication style, commercial confidence and the resilience to keep creating opportunities with local business owners, property managers, facility managers and decision‐makers.

Nice to have - experience in commercial painting, facilities maintenance, construction, building or similar industries.
