Our client is a $50m dynamic, highly entrepreneurial manufacturing business specializing in sales to builders and contractors. As a thriving ESOP organization, they boast a remarkable 20% YOY growth rate. Headquartered in Wisconsin, this company places a strong emphasis on providing excellent mentorship.
The primary goal for our client is to seamlessly integrate their builder clients into the company infrastructure, with a focus on nurturing high-quality, sustainable partnerships built on trust and mutual benefit. They go beyond mere transactional relationships by actively assisting small businesses in addressing their operational challenges.
The Opportunity:
As the Business Development Manager, you will assume responsibility for a significant territory generating over $8m in revenue, with a targeted growth of 10% annually. This role will predominantly focus on cultivating partnerships with existing builders (75%) while also actively prospecting for new clients (25%). As part of our company’s offerings to clients, you will have the opportunity to provide a comprehensive suite of tools, including a software kit designed to streamline customer processes. This role requires a moderate level of technological proficiency to effectively troubleshoot issues as they arise.
In addition to managing accounts and projects at the same time, this role also involves being a Business Builder, serving as a consultant to contractors. This position offers an exciting opportunity within a supportive team environment under strong leadership, where ample resources are available for leverage and continuous learning. You will prioritize long-term relationships over short-term gains, emphasizing consultation and partnership-building rather than traditional sales tactics. As the ideal candidate, you will possess strong interpersonal skills, promoting the brand enthusiastically and engaging proactively to foster client enthusiasm and satisfaction through innovative problem-solving strategies.
What you will need to be successful:
Embrace a long-term relationship-driven sales strategy, focusing on solutions that benefit both clients and the company.
Demonstrate self-motivation, strategic acumen, and a knack for creative problem-solving to navigate challenges effectively.
Utilize strong organizational and project management skills to ensure smooth operations and client satisfaction.
Leverage technical aptitude to provide top-notch tier 1 tech support, enhancing customer experience and resolving issues promptly.
Ability to feel at ease both on bustling job sites and in professional settings, ensuring seamless interaction and support across environments.

“Misura Group is invested, they actually get to know their candidates and their clients. Other recruiters are more transactional, not nearly as involved with evaluating the fit in either direction. They acknowledge the weaknesses, strong points, and personalities of every client company. It’s the same level of knowledge with the candidate. I think on both ends that makes a huge difference. It’s a quality not quantity type of process. Other recruiting firms just throw bodies at you, you can tell they have barely screened them, let alone gathered any information to see if they are a good fit for that company.” Chris Borrego, President, Premier Building Supply
