Business Development Manager

Chris Preble from Robert Half is partnering with a well-established, growing organization to add a Business Development Manager to its team. This role is focused on building relationships, uncovering new revenue opportunities, and re-engaging existing customers across multiple locations. The brand is already well known in the market — the opportunity lies in activating demand that already exists but hasn’t been systematically pursued. This organization has outstanding benefits and very low turnover.

This is a highly visible role for someone who enjoys connecting dots between customer data, real-world relationships, and revenue growth.

This role blends relationship-building, outbound business development, and data analysis. You’ll work closely with internal teams while spending time identifying opportunities others haven’t had the bandwidth to pursue.

Key responsibilities include:

• Build and maintain relationships with local businesses, organizations, and community partners.
• Proactively identify new business opportunities across corporate events, group functions, and special events.
• Re-engage past customers by analyzing historical data and following up with targeted outreach and promotional ideas.
• Leverage internal data to identify high-value customers, repeat buyers, and untapped segments.
• Develop outreach strategies for companies similar to existing successful clients (e.g., corporate events, large group functions).
• At times, attend community events, networking opportunities, and client meetings as needed.
• Collaborate with internal marketing and leadership teams to align outreach with brand initiatives.
• Build relationships with local leadership and understand on-the-ground operations.
• Track activity, opportunities, and outcomes to help inform future growth strategies.
  

• Proven experience in business development, sales, or a related field (B to B preferred).

• Strong ability to build and maintain effective relationships across diverse industries.

• Proficiency in analyzing data to inform strategic decision-making and outreach efforts.

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a talent for networking.

• Self-motivated and capable of working independently to achieve goals.

• Familiarity with creating tailored strategies for specific customer segments.
