Business Development Sales Manager (50% Remote/Travel; engineered plastics exp.) Description 

Our client, a materials engineering industry leader, is looking for a Business Development Manager to oversee their Southeastern Territory. When you’re not traveling, you can work from your home office. In this role, you’ll be responsible for driving volume growth of engineered nylon within automotive, industrial consumer goods, and electrical/electronic markets. This is a well-established territory where you’ll spend about 50% of your time nurturing existing accounts, with the remainder focused on new business development. To be chosen for this role, you must have a proven track record working across Engineering Teams during material selection. Whether you have sales experience or have been in the field as a service engineer and are looking for a chance to prove yourself, they’re looking for someone who enjoys versatility and technical depth. Someone who wants to go beyond order-taking to truly understand product formulations and material performance. By building credibility and trust with engineering teams, you’ll help drive meaningful, long-term partnerships and project wins. With our client, you’ll have the best of both worlds, the security of a billion-dollar global parent company with the tight-knit culture of a smaller US Team. Fewer organizational layers mean quicker decision-making, less overhead, and greater overall job security than what you’ll find with larger competitors. Their President shared, “We like to help people build careers.”
