Senior Business Development Manager — Fire Protection (National)

We’re hiring a strategic Business Development leader to grow our national fire protection consulting business. You’ll sell and advise on engineering and life-safety services across the lifecycle — consulting, system design, testing & inspection, maintenance programs, and third-party certifications — while shaping go-to-market strategy and expanding our footprint with developers, REITs, architects and large property owners.

What you’ll do

  • Own national GTM strategy for fire consulting and lead its execution.
  • Source, qualify and close high-value opportunities; manage a pipeline from proposal to contract.
  • Build and deepen relationships with developers, REITs, property owners, A / E firms and strategic partners.
  • Shape proposals : scope, pricing, commercial terms and delivery plans that balance technical quality and margin.
  • Coordinate with technical leaders and partner design / install firms to ensure profitable, on-time delivery.
  • Identify upsell and recurring revenue opportunities (testing, maintenance, certifications) and expand service mix.
  • Represent the company at industry events, code forums and executive client meetings.

You are

  • A seasoned fire-protection or life-safety professional with proven success selling services (consulting, design, inspection, maintenance).
  • Comfortable engaging at the C-suite and owner level and translating technical value into commercial outcomes.
  • Able to operate effectively in ambiguity — you set strategy, iterate quickly, and drive measurable results.
  • A strong collaborator who partners with technical teams, contractors and channel partners.
  • Commercially savvy with excellent negotiation, presentation and proposal skills.
  • Requirements

    Required

  • Demonstrated track record growing services revenue in fire protection, life-safety, or related engineering services.
  • Deep familiarity with fire protection codes, standards and industry stakeholders.
  • Experience shaping proposals and pricing for consulting / design / testing programs.
  • Proven ability to build and maintain strategic client relationships (developers, REITs, A / E, owners).
  • Nice to have

  • Professional Engineer (PE) licensure or engineering background.
  • Experience with third-party certification programs and recurring service revenue models.
  • National accounts / multi-region rollout experience.
  • Technical background in fire systems design, commissioning, or inspection.
  • Benefits

    Why join

  • Competitive benefits : medical / dental / vision + 401(k) with 5% employer match.
  • Unlimited PTO (manager-approved), covered travel & business expenses.
  • Support for training, certifications and PE licensure.
  • Bonus opportunity and relocation support (as applicable).
  • A high-visibility role on a growth team where your commercial and technical leadership will shape the future of fire protection services.
  • To apply, send your resume and a brief note describing a recent strategic win you led in fire protection or life-safety services.
