Business Development Manager The Business Development Manager wins new clients and new recurring revenue for Accellis. This is an individual contributor role focused on winning new clients; it does not manage a team. It is a true hunter role: you prospect, qualify, and close net-new business through direct outreach, networking, referrals, events, and consultative selling. Success is measured by new logos and recurring revenue growth. ## What You'll Do Win New Business - Find, prospect, and engage net-new opportunities; build and run your own territory plan. - Build pipeline through outbound calls, email campaigns, networking, referrals, and events. - Lead discovery meetings and assessments with business owners and executives. - Present, negotiate, and close managed IT, cybersecurity, cloud, AI, and professional services engagements. - Partner with our technical and leadership teams throughout the sales cycle.

Product or software-only sales experience does not meet this requirement. - A hunter mindset: comfortable cold calling and creating opportunities from scratch. - Proven outbound prospecting and full-cycle sales experience. - Clear, confident communication with executive-level decision-makers. - A disciplined, process-driven, consultative approach. - Experience with CRM and sales tools (HubSpot, ConnectWise, ZoomInfo, Apollo, or similar). - Drive to earn: you are motivated by measurable results and uncapped commission. - Ability to work from our Valley View office 2 days per week, including in-office onboarding. ## Nice to Have - Experience selling managed IT or technology services; prior MSP experience. - Experience selling into legal, professional services, nonprofit, financial services, manufacturing, or healthcare. - An established Northeast Ohio network and community involvement. - Bachelor's degree and/or relevant technical certifications. ## Compensation - Base: $65,000 - $90,000, based on qualifications and experience - Commission: uncapped - Target annual earnings: $129,000 - $200,000+ - Additional incentives available based on company programs and performance Early-career sellers with a strong record of winning new business are encouraged to apply.
