Job Description

Landscape Business Development Manager

Charlotte, NC | North Charlotte / Mooresville / Statesville Corridor | Full-Time

Bloom Talent Solutions connects high-performing professionals with growth-oriented companies across the green industry. We are proud to present this exclusive opportunity on behalf of a reputable commercial landscape contractor with an established and expanding presence in the Charlotte market.

This is a role for a closer — someone who knows the Charlotte commercial landscape market, can walk a site and build an estimate without hand-holding, and gets energized by building a book of business from scratch. If you're motivated by recurring commissions that reward the accounts you land and keep, and you want to be part of a company with a real five-year growth vision, this is your seat.

Key Responsibilities

• Prospect, estimate, and close commercial landscape maintenance contracts across the North Charlotte / Mooresville / Statesville territory
• Self-estimate using Aspire and conduct independent site walks — operations estimating support is limited during peak season
• Build and manage a pipeline targeting large on-site accounts, HOAs, route-based maintenance, and new construction enhancements
• Collaborate with the Charlotte branch manager and account management team on smooth sold-work transitions
• Contribute to the company's five-year growth objective of doubling the landscape division

Qualifications

• 3–10 years of experience in commercial landscape sales, preferably within a branch-model contractor environment
• Demonstrated ability to estimate landscape maintenance independently — not reliant on operations for estimating support
• Working knowledge of commercial maintenance pricing, contract structures, and the Charlotte competitive landscape
• Proven track record in new-business development — not just account management or renewals
• Motivated by a recurring commission model that rewards long-term account retention and relationship building
• Familiarity with Aspire or similar landscape business management software is a plus

If you've been building someone else's territory and you're ready to own yours — with a comp structure that pays you for every account you bring in and keeps rewarding you as long as they stay — this is the opportunity worth exploring.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base Salary: $75,000 – $110,000 depending on landscape experience and market readiness
• Commission: 3% in Year 1, 2% in Year 2, 1% in Year 3 — paid monthly as accounts are billed
• OTE: ~$40,000 on $1M in new annual sales, plus margin and contract-length kickers
• Year 1 Sales Target: $1,000,000 in new revenue (prorated based on start date)
• Car allowance provided
• Full benefits package
