Job Summary:

The Business Development Director is the hunter of the national account team. A senior, externally credible individual accountable for opening, winning, and landing net-new accounts and volume that did not exist before. This role drives long-term, profitable growth by identifying, securing, and converting new enterprise-level customers, then handing landed accounts cleanly to the national account farming team. Working a single segment track (Commercial and Industrial customers), the Director positions Moove as a valued strategic partner from first contact and is measured on net-new gross profit amount, not account maintenance.

With a primary focus on new business development, the Director is accountable for identifying target accounts, converting them into a robust pipeline of high-value opportunities, and securing profitable new business across key customer segments including large Off-Highway Commercial Vehicles (Fleets, OEM / factory-fill, private label and dealer aftermarket), and industrial manufacturing.

The ideal candidate is:

•  A true hunter, comfortable with cold outreach, focused on opening, developing, and winning enterprise accounts.
•  Commercially disciplined with a focus on profitable growth and margin, not revenue at any cost.
•  An executive-level communicator, confident engaging C-suite leadership and key decision-makers.
•  Strong in pipeline discipline, with a process-oriented approach to opportunity management and forecasting.
•  Highly autonomous, driven, competitive, and entrepreneurial, with a strong sense of ownership.
•  Skilled at uncovering customer pain points and positioning value-based solutions before pitching product.
•  The ideal candidate is not:
•  A relationship manager focused on maintaining accounts rather than winning new ones.
•  A transactional deal-closer who relies on discounting to win business at any cost.
•  More comfortable settling into accounts than continuously opening new ones.
•  Reactive and activity-driven, without pipeline discipline or forecasting accuracy.
