What We Do

Business Development Partner - Title & Escrow

Northern Nevada | Minden / Incline Village

Relationships drive this business. Trust, follow-through, local market knowledge, and the ability to create lasting partnerships are what set great business development professionals apart.

We are looking for a driven, relationship-focused Business Development Executive to help grow our title and escrow presence in Northern Nevada. This is an opportunity for someone who wants more than just another sales role. It is a chance to build a market, grow meaningful partnerships, and work alongside a leadership team that values execution, culture, accountability, and people.

You will have the autonomy to grow your business, the support of a strong escrow and operations team, and the backing of a respected national organization with deep local market commitment.

Let's Talk

If you are building a career - not simply chasing your next deal - we would welcome a confidential conversation.

The right environment still matters.

The right leadership still matters.

And great people still make the difference.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Leadership that supports, empowers, and removes obstacles

• Autonomy to grow your market with the backing of a strong operational team

• Thoughtful onboarding, training, and ramp support designed for long-term success

• A collaborative culture where sales and operations genuinely work together

• Growth opportunity within a stable, respected national organization

• Flexibility that supports both professional success and personal balance

• A company investing in the future of title and escrow through technology, people, and relationships

What You'll Do

• Build and strengthen relationships with Realtors, lenders, builders, investors, and key partners throughout Northern Nevada

• Develop new business opportunities through consistent market presence, networking, and relationship-building

• Deliver an exceptional customer experience built on responsiveness, trust, and follow-through

• Partner closely with escrow and operational teams to drive client success and retention

• Represent a trusted national brand while continuing to build your own reputation in the market

Who Thrives Here

People who are:

• Competitive, but relationship-driven

• Self-motivated and accountable

• Trusted within their market and community

• Comfortable creating opportunities instead of waiting for them

• Focused on long-term growth rather than short-term transactions

• Looking for strong leadership, culture, and opportunity - not just another commission plan

What You'll Bring

• High school diploma or equivalent

• 2-5 years of successful residential title, escrow, real estate, mortgage, or related industry experience

• Proven track record of meeting and exceeding sales goals

• Strong relationship-building and follow-through skills

• Valid driver's license

Location

This role is based in Northern Nevada, with a primary office location in Minden and market coverage that may include Minden, Incline Village, and surrounding communities.

Pay is based on a number of factors which may include job-related knowledge, skills, experience, business requirements and geographic location.

What We Offer

By choice, we don't simply accept individuality - we embrace it, we support it, and we thrive on it! Our People First culture is inclusive for all employees - not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it's the key to our success. We are proud to foster an authentic and inclusive workplace For All. You are free and encouraged to bring your entire, unique self to work.
