Job description

Now Hiring: Business Development Specialist

Are you the kind of person who sees opportunity where others see uncertainty? Do you thrive in uncharted territory, building, launching, and scaling from scratch? If so, we’re looking for a Business Development Specialist to help lead our next phase of growth.

This Isn’t a Desk Job — It’s a Build-Something-Bigger Role

You’ll be at the forefront of our expansion—identifying new markets, executing acquisitions, and launching new office locations from the ground up. This is a high‑ownership role for someone who doesn’t wait for direction but creates it.

You’ll work side‑by‑side with executive leadership to turn vision into reality, bringing new locations to life and setting them up for long‑term success.

What You’ll Own

• Scout and evaluate new markets with a sharp, strategic lens
• Identify and execute acquisition opportunities that accelerate growth
• Lead the full lifecycle of launching new offices—from idea to opening day
• Drive site selection, lease negotiations, and office buildout
• Align teams, staffing, and operations to ensure successful market entry
• Lead and manage the Marketing, Sales, and Intake teams, ensuring alignment with expansion goals and driving performance across all locations
• Oversee marketing strategy to fuel brand awareness and momentum in new and existing markets
• Build strong relationships with brokers, landlords, and local stakeholders
• Step in post‑launch to stabilize operations and drive early performance

Who You Are

• A self‑starter who doesn’t need a playbook—you write it
• Comfortable with ambiguity and energized by building from scratch
• Strategic thinker with strong execution skills
• A natural leader with experience managing cross‑functional teams (Marketing, Sales, Intake)
• A relationship‑builder who can open doors and close deals
• Highly organized and able to juggle multiple high‑impact initiatives
• Driven by growth, results, and leaving a mark

Why This Role Stands Out

• You’ll play a direct role in shaping the company’s future footprint
• Every project is a new challenge—no two markets are the same
• High visibility and partnership with executive leadership
• Real ownership, real impact, real growth

If you’re ready to build, lead, and expand in ways that matter—this is your opportunity.

Apply now and help us grow what’s next.
