Job description

BMS CAT | Hunt. Farm. Win. Make an Impact.

Founded in 1948, BMS CAT is one of the most respected names in the restoration and reconstruction industry. From emergency clean-up to complete rebuilds on multi-million-dollar commercial projects, we show up when our clients need us most — and we deliver.

As we continue to grow across the U.S., we’re searching for driven, relationship-focused Commercial Account Managers (CAMs) who can hunt for new opportunities and farm strategic accounts to become the preferred restoration partner for major commercial organizations.

• Hospitality
• Retail + Shopping Centers
• Government & Education
• Healthcare & Medical Facilities
• Multi-Family & Senior Living

Your mission?

When disaster strikes — fire, water, mold, storms, catastrophe — you are the first call.

This is a high-energy, fast-paced, field-focused role where no two days look the same, and success comes from proactive relationship-building and smart prospecting

Essential Functions

In this role, you will:

Business Development & Strategic Hunting

• Partner with the marketing department to coordinate tradeshows and presentations
• Assist with collections on both local and national accounts when needed
• Use our CRM (Salesforce) to keep accounts, contacts, and activities updated
• Manage reporting requirements and internal communication needs
• Communicate effectively — even in high-stress or emergency situations

Experience & Skills

We’re looking for someone who is:

• A strong communicator — verbal, written, and in presentations
• Relationship-driven and personable
• Detail-oriented and organized
• Confident presenting to individuals and large groups
• Self-motivated with the ability to work independently
• Able to lead when needed and collaborate with a team

Experienced in business development/account management

If you enjoy meeting new people, solving problems, and having full ownership of your market, this is the role for you.

Compensation & What We Provide

At BMS CAT, you’ll work alongside some of the most knowledgeable professionals in the restoration industry. Our Large Loss Team is best-in-class, ensuring you never turn down an opportunity due to size or scope.
