Business Development Manager - Accounting + Finance Practice

Soni Resources Group

Senior Business Development Associate

New York, NY · Full-Time · $80,000 - $200,000+

The Opportunity
This is not an entry-level role and it's not for someone looking to learn the basics. The Senior Business Development Associate is a high-impact, revenue-generating position for a proven producer who is ready to own a market, build a book of business, and operate with the autonomy that comes from having already earned it.

You will be the tip of the spear for Soni's growth – identifying opportunities, winning new clients, and deepening relationships that drive long-term revenue. If you've been producing at a high level and feel like your current platform is holding you back, this is the conversation you should be having.

What You'll Do

Own Your Market:

Develop and execute a targeted outbound strategy to identify, engage, and close new client relationships within your designated vertical and geography

Build a Book of Business:

Drive net new revenue through cold outreach, relationship-building, strategic account mapping, and consultative selling – from first conversation to signed contract

Grow Existing Accounts:

Identify cross-selling opportunities within Soni's 1,500+ signed client base and deepen relationships to expand wallet share

Operate as a Consultant:

Position yourself as a trusted market advisor – bringing industry insights, compensation data, and workforce intelligence to every client conversation

Collaborate Cross-Functionally:

Partner tightly with recruiting teams to ensure client needs are met with speed, precision, and the right talent

Pipeline with Discipline:

Maintain a rigorous, data-driven approach to pipeline management using CRM and AI tools – tracking activity, forecasting revenue, and optimizing your strategy in real time

Represent the Brand:

Show up as a senior representative of Soni in the market – at client meetings, industry events, and every touchpoint in between

You've carried a quota, hit it, and exceeded it. You can show your numbers and you're proud of them

Hunter Mentality:

You build pipeline from scratch. You don't wait for inbound leads – you create your own opportunities through outbound discipline and relentless follow-through

Consultative Selling Skills:

You listen before you pitch. You diagnose before you prescribe. You win trust before you win business
