Business Development Manager - Managed IT & Cyber

Talon Group
Sydney NSW 2000Full time

Listed 24 Sep 2026

  • Win clients who want IT that prevents issues, not just fixes them
  • Sell security, uptime and scalable cloud as business outcomes
  • Build your own pipeline; use marketing, don't wait on it

About the role

Our client is a well-established technology services organisation seeking a genuine new-business hunter. This is a full-cycle BDM role focused on winning new customers across managed IT, cloud, infrastructure, professional services and cybersecurity - not account management.

If you can build a pipeline from scratch through outbound prospecting, networking and referrals, we want to hear from you.

What you'll do

  • Generate your own pipeline through cold calling, LinkedIn, email, networking and referrals
  • Identify target accounts and map decision-makers (owners, directors, CIOs, IT Managers and other senior stakeholders)
  • Persist when one contact doesn't respond - find another path into the organisation
  • Run the full sales cycle from first conversation through to close
  • Sell across a broad solution set: Managed IT Services, Cloud (including Microsoft/Azure), Infrastructure, Networking, Backup & Disaster Recovery, Enterprise Technology, Professional Services and Cyber Security
  • Partner with Marketing on campaigns and content, while remaining independently capable of creating opportunities
  • Work to clear revenue and new-business targets

What we're looking for

  • Proven hunter: a track record of winning new customers, not just farming existing accounts
  • Strong self-generated pipeline experience
  • Confidence engaging senior stakeholders and running complex, multi-stakeholder sales
  • Commercial hunger, persistence and comfort with outbound activity
  • Ability to decide who to target, how to approach them, and how to create opportunity from a standing start
  • Someone who can answer: "You start with no pipeline and no inbound leads. What do you actually do?"

What's on offer

  • A genuine new-business mandate with a broad, high-value portfolio
  • Marketing support without being lead-dependent
  • A commercially driven environment with clear targets and room to earn
  • Base salary between 140k and 165k plus Super and strong commission structure

To apply, submit your CV via outlining your new-business results and how you generate pipeline independently.
