Business Development Manager
ThisWay, Des Moines, IA, United States
Our partner is looking for a Business Development Manager in Charlotte, NC. This role is for a true builder. The Business Development Manager is responsible for creating new relationships from the ground up—bringing in new enterprise clients through a consultative, value-driven approach. This is not a role built on inbound leads or inherited accounts. It’s built on curiosity, persistence, and the ability to earn trust over time. You’ll operate in a space where the work matters—supporting safety, security, and connectivity across organizations. It takes patience. It takes resilience. There are a lot of “no’s.” But when it comes together, the impact is real—for the client, for the organization, and for your own growth.

Stay close to the market – Develop a point of view within your vertical and show up as a credible, trusted resource
Plan for the long‑term – Help shape multi‑year roadmaps once a client becomes a partner
Manage your pipeline with discipline – Maintain strong CRM habits and a clear path to revenue
A true hunter – Comfortable starting conversations from scratch and building momentum over time
Resilient and steady – Able to hear “no,” recalibrate, and continue progressing without losing focus
Consultative by nature – Asks thoughtful questions, listens well, and builds solutions—not just proposals
Industry fluent – Experience in low voltage, fiber, AV, security, fire alarm, access control, or related infrastructure technologies
Enterprise‑minded – Understanding of longer sales cycles, multiple stakeholders, and the discipline required to close complex deals
