This is an opportunity to work closely with senior leadership, shaping market strategies and driving growth in high-impact sectors such as architectural renovations and large-scale restoration projects. The organization combines design expertise with engineering precision, delivering exceptional results that have earned recognition as one of the fastest-growing companies in America multiple times.

Collaborate with leadership to evolve business development strategies and drive accountability through reporting on KPIs, revenue targets, and conversion rates.
Represent the firm at industry events, conferences, and networking functions to enhance visibility and foster relationships with key stakeholders.
Partner with marketing to design and execute targeted campaigns, create compelling collateral, and support branding initiatives.
Conduct market research and competitive analysis to inform business development efforts and maintain awareness of industry trends.

Skills & Experience

10+ years of experience in business development or sales, preferably within property management or real estate development markets.
Strong understanding of large-scale projects, including government and institutional work.
Exceptional communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills.
Proficiency in CRM systems (e.g., Pipedrive, Salesforce), marketing analytics, and design tools (InDesign, Photoshop).
Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.

Compensation and Benefits

Competitive base salary with annual bonus opportunities.
Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, vision, and FSA options.
Wellness perks such as ClassPass membership.
401(k) plan with employer match.
Generous paid time off, including additional company “bonus” days.
Professional development programs and team-building activities.

Join a fast-growing, innovative team where design expertise meets engineering precision, and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of architecture and restoration projects.
