Position Overview

The Business Development Coordinator (BDC) delivers executional, coordination, and enablement support to quota-carrying Business Development Managers (BDMs), enhancing sales efficiency, dealer responsiveness, and internal alignment while reducing administrative burdens.

This non-quota-bearing, non-territory-owning individual contributor role may include non-sales duties like Customer Experience, Operations, or Marketing support, with guardrails preventing scope expansion into revenue ownership, dealer recruitment/termination, pricing negotiations, strategic relationship management, or forecasting—duties reserved for BDMs.

The BDC aligns with the Commercial / Sales Operations & Enablement team as an early to mid-level, non-managerial contributor, comparable to Sales Coordinator or Sales Enablement Associate. Compensation is salary-based with an opportunity for a commission-based bonus, below BDM levels, excluding revenue-tied incentives.

What You’ll Do

Reporting to the Director of Sales/Business Development, the BDC coordinates between dealers, BDMs, and internal teams, emphasizing responsiveness, consistency, and operational excellence to free BDMs for strategic selling, without revenue, pricing, strategy, forecasting responsibilities. Performance focuses on:

• For Sales Support, the BDC should provide daily coordination for BDMs, prepare materials and logistics for meetings/trainings/events, execute sales programs, and minimize administrative tasks.
• For Dealer Support, the BDC should respond promptly to inquiries, assist with onboarding and documentation, route issues, and communicate consistently without overriding BDM ownership.
• For Cross-functional Collaboration, the BDC should connect Sales with Customer Experience, Operations and Marketing, track resolutions, and share timely information.
• For CRM/reporting, the BDC should maintain records/tracking, support leadership needs, and ensure data integrity. Uphold professional standards with a care-first mindset, building trust through reliability, detail, and positive representation.

What You Bring

• 1-3 years in sales support/operations
• Bachelor's degree in business, marketing or related field preferred
• Proficiency in CRM (e.g, HubSpot, Salesforce) and Microsoft Office
• Strong organizational/customer-service skills
• Outdoor products/home improvement experience a plus

What’s in It for You?

• Bonus target range: 10%-20%
• Top-tier benefits – Medical, dental, vision, life, and disability
