They are creators, architects, nurses, researchers, programmers, marketers, facilitators, developers, investors, and caregivers, all focused on making a positive impact on the lives of residents, their families and team members.

The Director of Business Development is responsible for driving both internal and external sales growth within Experience Senior Living’s Colorado market. This role will begin with a focused assignment—supporting the sales and occupancy growth of a designated community (approximately 60% internal sales and 40% external business development). Once that community is stabilized, the position will expand to encompass external business development and referral relationship management across all Colorado communities.

• Create and execute business development plans with measurable referral and conversion goals.
• Track and report referral activity, conversion ratios, and market intelligence to the SVP of Sales & Marketing.
• Maintain an active presence in the local market through outreach, presentations, and strategic partnerships.
• Represent ESL at regional networking events, health fairs, and industry associations.
• Collaborate with divisional and senior leadership to assess market trends, competitive positioning, and partnership opportunities.
• Support the launch of new communities and assist with sales team training during pre-opening and early occupancy phases.

Leadership & Collaboration

• Serve as a sales culture champion—modeling ESL’s relationship-centered selling approach.
• Partner closely with the SVP of Sales and Marketing, the Divisional Director of Sales & Marketing, Sales Specialists, and community leaders to ensure alignment on messaging, process, and goals.
• Provide recommendations for pricing, marketing, and promotional strategies based on local insights.
