Business Development Manager – Sail Properties
Base Salary + Uncapped Commission
Huntington Beach, CA
If you’re a sales professional who enjoys building relationships, generating new business, and closing deals, this could be a great fit for you!

Why This Role Stands Out

Clear path to $100K+ OTE with uncapped earning potential

A role where your performance directly drives your income and growth
