We are looking for an experienced Business Development Representative with experience in Construction tech, SaaS, or Construction.

  • Educate, answer questions, and send resources to potential GCs throughout the sales process.
  • Stay current on PlanHub's products, pricing, and payment plans to represent our preconstruction solutions accurately.
  • Track and report prospecting activity, pipeline, and forecasts through HubSpot.
  • Keep a pulse on the competitive landscape and how PlanHub stacks up.
  • Communicate clearly and effectively with management, GCs, and internal teams alike.

What you will need to be successful:
