About Christie Lites
Christie Lites operates one of the largest stage lighting rental companies in North America, with offices across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Germany. With more than 35 years in business, Christie Lites serves a diverse client base spanning Trade Shows, Corporate & Special Events, Film & Television, Concert & Theatrical Touring, Education, and the Arts.
Christie Lites employs a universal team of Rental Sales Managers who serve clients on an exclusive, relationship-based model. Client assignments are not regional or market-sector based, but are formed and grown through individual relationships. This structure provides unlimited opportunity for portfolio growth, professional autonomy, and long-term career advancement.
Job Purpose
The Business Development Manager is a full-cycle, relationship-driven sales professional responsible for building, growing, and managing a personal portfolio of lighting rental clients. Success in this role requires proactively sourcing and developing new client relationships, influencing product specification, and ensuring high-quality execution through close collaboration with Christie Lites’ global support teams.
This role is designed for individuals who thrive on independence, accountability, and long-term relationship ownership.

This role is not suited for candidates seeking inherited accounts, region-assigned territories, or primarily service-only account management responsibilities. Success requires proactive prospecting, relationship ownership, and personal accountability for portfolio performance.
