Business Development Representative

Build Relationships. Grow Your Career. Make a Difference. At SERVPRO Team Ridner, we're more than a restoration company—we help families and businesses recover after water damage, fire, mold, storms, and other unexpected disasters. We're looking for an energetic, relationship-driven Business Development Representative who enjoys meeting new people, building long-term partnerships, and making a real impact in the community. If you're motivated by goals, enjoy networking, and want to work for a growing company where your effort directly impacts your income and career growth, we'd love to meet you.

• Paid training and ongoing coaching
• Paid time off

Build on an Established Territory

This is not a position where you'll be starting from scratch. You'll inherit an established territory with existing referral partners and strong relationships throughout our seven-county service area. Rather than building a book of business from the ground up, you'll strengthen existing partnerships while creating new opportunities for growth. You'll work with insurance professionals, property managers, business owners, healthcare facilities, municipalities, schools, contractors, and other referral partners who rely on SERVPRO when disaster strikes.

What You'll Do

• Attend daily team meetings and coaching sessions
• Plan and execute daily sales routes
• Prepare for client meetings and prospecting activities
• Prioritize daily objectives
• Complete reporting and administrative tasks
• Build and maintain relationships with referral partners
• Identify and develop new business opportunities
• Execute a structured territory management plan
• Document customer interactions and sales activity
• Develop and achieve monthly sales objectives
• Conduct client appreciation activities
• Follow up to ensure outstanding customer satisfaction
• Present SERVPRO Emergency Ready Plans (ERP)
• Gather facility information and emergency response data
• Develop customized preparedness plans for commercial clients
• Conduct follow-up visits to maintain relationships and readiness
• Coordinate continuing education events
• Attend networking functions and community events
• Participate in professional associations
• Represent SERVPRO Team Ridner throughout the community

The Ideal Candidate

• Love meeting new people and building relationships.
• Are competitive and motivated by achieving goals.
• Want your effort to directly impact your income.
• Can work independently without constant supervision.
• Stay organized and manage your own schedule effectively.
• Follow through on commitments.
• Build trust naturally rather than relying on high-pressure sales tactics.
• Enjoy networking and becoming involved in your local community.
• Want a long-term career with opportunities for growth.

This position is probably not a good fit if you prefer working behind a desk, dislike networking, or struggle with self-motivation. Success comes from consistently building relationships, becoming a trusted resource in the community, and executing your daily sales plan.

Qualifications

• Minimum of two years of B2B outside sales experience
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• Strong customer service skills
• Self-motivated and results-driven
• Highly organized with excellent time management skills
• Comfortable using Microsoft Office and CRM software
• Valid driver's license with an acceptable driving record
• Bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• Experience in restoration, construction, property management, insurance, or other service industries
• Strong business and financial acumen

Work Environment

• Full-time
• Monday-Friday
• Typical schedule: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
• Up to 90% local travel
• Occasional evening networking events and limited overnight travel
