Overview Are you a relationship builder with a hunter mentality who thrives on opening doors and closing deals? Do you want to lead revenue growth at a unique manufacturing company that's scaling aggressively after a strategic acquisition? Are you the type who sees cross-selling opportunities others miss and knows how to turn conversations into contracts? Our Head of Sales & Business Development will drive revenue across two complementary product lines: custom architectural millwork/metalwork (MITM) and presentation furniture/audio systems (KSI). This naturally self-motivated leader will expand our footprint with national general contractors in hospitality, multi-family, and commercial construction while simultaneously growing relationships with universities, cultural institutions, and corporate clients. You\'ll be the first dedicated sales leader, building processes and pipelines that will scale as we grow the team.
