Outbound Outreach Programme

About this task

This machinery maker supplying the auto industry (201–500 employees) is looking for a manager Business Development Manager for an ongoing part-time engagement of 3–7 h a week. Personal outreach that books first meetings.

The team is stretched and wants steady, predictable help instead of another full-time hire. It manufactures physical products, and the office team works to month-end and plant schedules.

The company prefers a person who can come to New York City for kickoff and the final review; the rest is remote. The company prefers early-morning hours, before a normal working day starts. About 3 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (ET).

What you deliver

• Send 40 personalised messages a week, handle replies and book qualified meetings for the sales team.
• A written update every Monday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked
• Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day
• A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends

What a week looks like

• Thursday: 15-minute check-in to agree the week's items
• Friday: main working block (2 hours)
• Monday: hand-off note with what shipped and what is open

Duration: 16 weeks, renewable. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included.
