About Designblendz

Designblendz is a multidisciplinary design and technology firm operating at the intersection of the built environment and advanced technology. Our capabilities include Architecture, Interior Design, 3D Visualization, BIM and Coordination, Construction Logistics Visualization, Realtour immersive platform, and emerging technology-enabled services.

We work with developers, owners, contractors, institutions, designers, and real estate professionals nationwide.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a Business Development Manager to generate new business, build relationships, expand existing accounts, and help grow a repeatable business-development engine for Designblendz.

This is a relationship-driven sales role. We're looking for someone who enjoys opening doors, building a network, uncovering opportunities, following up consistently, and turning relationships into revenue.

You don't need to be an architect or technical expert. Your job is to understand our capabilities, identify where we can help a client, and bring the right Designblendz experts into the conversation.

What You'll Do

  • Identify and pursue new clients and project opportunities.
  • Build relationships with developers, owners, GCs, brokers, institutions, architects, consultants, and other AEC professionals.
  • Proactively prospect and create conversations with key decision-makers.
  • Identify opportunities before they reach the formal RFP stage.
  • Build strategic referral relationships.
  • Attend industry events, conferences, project tours, and client meetings.
  • Re-engage past clients and expand existing relationships.
  • Qualify opportunities and coordinate internal technical resources.
  • Maintain an organized CRM and sales pipeline.
  • Coordinate with our team on proposals and presentations.
  • Own follow-up and help move opportunities from initial conversation through contract execution.

What You'll Sell

Our platform includes Architecture, Interior Design, 3D Visualization, Personal Injury and Active Scenario Simulation, BIM and Coordination, Construction Logistics Visualization, Realtour, and emerging technology-enabled services.

Who We're Looking For

The ideal candidate is entrepreneurial, relationship-oriented, persistent, organized, and accountable for results.

Experience in business development, sales, commercial real estate, architecture, engineering, construction, or professional services is preferred. An existing AEC or real estate network is a plus.

You should be comfortable initiating conversations, developing relationships with decision-makers, managing a pipeline, and being measured against revenue goals.

Why Designblendz

Rather than selling one narrow service, you'll represent a broad platform of design and technology capabilities serving the entire real estate lifecycle. You'll work directly with company leadership and have significant autonomy to build relationships, pursue opportunities, and help shape the next stage of Designblendz's growth.

Designblendz is an equal opportunity employer. Employment decisions are based on qualifications, merit, and business needs.

Skills Required

  • Experience in business development, sales, commercial real estate, architecture, engineering, construction, or professional services
  • Existing AEC or real estate network
  • Ability to initiate conversations and develop relationships with decision-makers
  • Ability to manage a sales pipeline and CRM
  • Relationship-oriented, persistent, organized, entrepreneurial, and accountable for results
  • Comfort being measured against revenue goals
