Business Development Manager (BDM)
This national position is a key sales driver establishing, maintaining and growing our segment sector business in the Hospitality Segment (hotels, destination resorts, sport venues, convention centers).
The National Segment role addresses customers' needs to repaint and maintain existing buildings and monumental projects and others assigned by management. The business is primarily existing buildings but will involve new construction as a mix.
Preference is given to subject matter experts in each specific segment. Those with current contacts will be given additional preference. Prior sales experiences is a must as this is a selling leadership role converting opportunities to revenue.
With national coverage this home based role requires travel up to 70% to ensure long sales cycles are converted in sales. The success of this position will rely on self-driven initiative, navigating ambiguity, and an independent personality. Candidates must embody customer centric communication in person, virtual, and verbal. Tracking projects status is key.
This position is a system approach to selling with strong relationship building skills requiring on-site recommendations, guidance and project meetings with owners, GC, architects, painters, inspectors, and corporate accounts.

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
