Build your career in business development with SWI Fencing

Are you commercially minded, confident building relationships and keen to develop a career in business development?

SWI Fencing is looking for a motivated Junior Business Development Manager to join our team in Perth. This is an opportunity for someone with robust communication skills, initiative and a natural ability to connect with people to develop their career within the construction and infrastructure sectors.

You don't need an established industry network or previous fencing experience. We are looking for the right attitude, commercial curiosity and willingness to learn. You will receive guidance and support from our Head of Business Development as you develop your industry knowledge, relationships and ability to identify new business opportunities.

About the role

You will support SWI's business development activities by researching upcoming projects, identifying potential clients and developing relationships with key industry stakeholders.

You will help identify opportunities early, understand project requirements and procurement pathways, and progress qualified opportunities through to the Request for Quotation (RFQ) stage before handing them over to our Client Relations and Preconstruction teams.

This is a hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys engaging with people, researching opportunities and developing commercial relationships.

Key responsibilities

- Research upcoming construction, infrastructure and government projects to identify and qualify potential business opportunities.
- Identify and engage prospective clients, head contractors, consultants and other industry stakeholders.
- Develop and maintain professional relationships, introducing SWI Fencing's capabilities and value proposition.
- Monitor project scope, funding, procurement pathways and anticipated timeframes to assess opportunity suitability.
- Support the progression of opportunities through to RFQ, coordinating with internal teams to ensure an effective handover.
- Maintain accurate CRM records,



opportunity registers and business development pipeline reporting.
- Monitor industry activity, tender portals and project announcements to identify emerging opportunities.

You will ideally bring:

- Strong verbal and written communication skills.
- Confidence engaging with new people and building professional relationships.
- Good research and organisational skills.

- A professional and proactive approach.
- Strong attention to detail and confidence using Microsoft Office and CRM systems.
- A willingness to learn about construction, fencing, infrastructure and government procurement.
- The ability to manage competing priorities and work collaboratively with internal teams.

Previous experience in sales, customer service, account management, administration or a business development support role will be viewed favourably. Experience in construction or infrastructure is an advantage but not essential.
