Company Description:We are global leaders in sustainable building envelope solutions. We specialize in manufacturing, developing, and integrating renewable energy technologies, modern architectural products, and high-performing wall systems to create sustainable and energy-efficient buildings. Our commitment to environmental responsibility and cutting-edge technology drives us to revolutionize the construction industry. Join us in our mission to provide aesthetically pleasing, durable, and energy-efficient products and solutions that transform the way we build.
Role Overview
We’re looking for a Business Development & Architectural Representative to own the technical and specification side of our BD function. You’ll be the face of Mitrex & Cladify with architects, designers, and specifiers — leading Lunch & Learn sessions, responding to RFI/RFQ packages, and building relationships that move our solar cladding products into specifications. An architectural or construction background is strongly preferred. This is a client-facing, relationship-driven role that sits between technical expert and business developer.
Key Responsibilities
Customer Outreach
- Build and maintain relationships with architects, general contractors, building owners, engineers, building envelope consultants, and specification writers
- Conduct outreach to clients, maintain relationships, and convert to project opportunities
- Present Mitrex & Cladify’s solar cladding systems to construction and architectural audiences
- Guide specifiers through the product selection process and assist in getting Mitrex products written into project specifications
- Respond to or support responses to RFQ with accurate, well-prepared documentation
- Develop sufficient technical product knowledge to handle detailed conversations with architects and envelope consultants independently
Outbound Campaigns & Meeting Generation
- Own outbound prospecting campaigns using Apollo, Clay, Zapier, or equivalent platforms — building target lists, writing sequences, and booking meetings for the sales team
- Manage and optimize email outreach sequences, A/B testing subject lines, messaging, and calls to action to improve open and reply rates
- Research and segment prospecting lists by audience type (architects, developers, building owners, contractors) to maximize campaign relevance
- Track outbound campaign performance and report on meeting-booked metrics weekly
Documentation Support
- Prepare and maintain presentation decks, product binders, technical data sheets, and leave-behind materials for design audiences
- Support the BD team in preparing client-facing proposals and specification packages
CRM, Reporting & Pipeline
- Maintain CRM (Salesforce) data quality — leads, contacts, opportunities, and meeting notes kept current after every interaction
- Monitor and update ConstructConnect and other project intelligence sources weekly for specification-stage opportunities
- Track BD KPIs related to architectural outreach, L&L attendance, and specification conversions; flag anomalies to management
- Use AI tools where available to streamline reporting, research, and outreach workflows
Client Meeting & Event Support
- Attend client and prospect meetings alongside the sales team, contributing technical context and follow-up documentation
- Represent the company at trade shows, industry events, and architectural association functions as needed
Qualifications
- Background in architecture, architectural technology, interior design, or building products / construction - strongly preferred
- 2+ years of experience in a client-facing, BD, or technical sales support role
- Confident presenter with experience speaking to design professionals or technical audiences
- Proficiency with CRM systems (Salesforce experience is an asset)
- Experience preparing or responding to RFI/RFQ and specification documents
- Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to produce professional client-facing materials
- High attention to detail with a zero-error standard for client-facing documents
- Comfortable using AI tools to improve workflows and output quality
