Business Development Resume Example

• A pipeline figure and a closed revenue figure side by side show the applicant builds opportunities and wins them.
• Winning four of seven bids gives a hit rate, which is more honest than a claim of strong closing.
• Referral partnerships with a share of new leads show work that keeps paying after the first deal.
• The associate role shows the applicant has done the groundwork of research, outreach and proposal drafting.

1. Give pipeline built and revenue closed for a stated period, and be ready to explain both.
2. Add a win rate, number of new clients or partnerships still active.
3. Describe where leads come from, such as outreach, referrals or events.
4. Show how you work with delivery teams on proposals, because the best deals rely on them.
5. Keep numbers in the same currency and period so a reader can compare them.
6. Leave out client names unless you have permission, and describe the sector instead.

Only list what is true for you. A skill you cannot talk about in an interview does not help.
