Business Development Manager - Public Education
The Budd Group, Charlotte, NC, United States
Ready to Shape the Future of Learning Environments?
A strategic closer who thrives on the road and loves the thrill of winning high‑stakes public contracts? At The Budd Group , we don’t just provide facilities services; we create clean, safe, and inspiring spaces where students succeed.
Business Development Manager – Public Education
We are looking for a high‑energy Business Development Manager to spearhead our growth in the K‑12 and Higher Education sectors. If you’re a "road warrior" with a knack for navigating the complexities of public procurement and a passion for building lasting community partnerships, we want to meet you!
The Mission
Reporting directly to the VP of Sales, you will be the face of our mission across a multi‑state footprint. Your goal? To help school districts and universities solve their toughest facilities challenges through our premier custodial and maintenance solutions.
What Your Days Will Look Like
Strategic Growth: Engage with the "who’s who" of education—Superintendents, CFOs, and School Boards—to build trust and open doors.
Master of the Road: You love the journey. You’ll manage a multi‑state territory with a consistent travel schedule (averaging 3‑day overnight stays) to meet partners where they are.
Procurement Pro: You’ll dive deep into the world of RFPs, public bids, and cooperative purchasing (think Sourcewell and Omnia) to secure major wins.
Conference Champion: Represent us at major trade shows (ASBO, PASBO, AASA), turning quick booth chats into long‑term partnerships.
Collaborative Design: Work hand‑in‑hand with our Operations team to craft service solutions that are both high‑impact for schools and profitable for the business.
Who You Are
An Experienced Navigator: You have 5+ years of B2B sales experience, ideally within the public sector or government contracting.
Public Sector Savvy: You understand the unique rhythm of tax‑based budgeting and the political nuances of school board approvals.
Administratively Sharp: You’re a Salesforce pro who understands that a winning bid is built on meticulous data and disciplined follow‑up.
A Confident Communicator: Whether it’s a one‑on‑one coffee or a formal presentation to a public committee, you command the room with ease.
Ready to Roll: You have a valid driver’s license, can pass school‑mandated background checks, and are prepared for the physical demands of travel and event setup.
Are you ready to make an impact on the next generation? Apply today and let’s build something great together!
