Metropolis Technologies is seeking a Business Development Associate to drive net-new business growth in a regional territory. The company is pioneering the Recognition Economy using AI and computer vision technology, transforming parking and expanding into retail and hospitality sectors.
In this role, you will identify and develop new business opportunities through multiple channels including cold outreach via phone, email, and LinkedIn, as well as networking events. You'll execute a consultative sales approach to qualify both inbound and outbound leads through discovery calls, uncovering client pain points to create solution-oriented proposals. You will lead client discovery sessions, product demos, and formal sales presentations, ensuring all supporting documentation is prepared for client meetings.
Key responsibilities include partnering with Account Executives and senior leadership to manage client portfolios and ensure strong deal handoffs, collaborating with cross-functional teams (marketing, operations, legal) on underwriting and financial modeling, and maintaining meticulous activity tracking and pipeline hygiene in Salesforce/CRM. You'll monitor sales performance metrics and pipeline development to consistently hit activity and generation goals, develop account strategies and outreach initiatives, and master buyer personas and industry trends to inform business development strategies.
The ideal candidate has 2+ years of professional experience in an SDR/BDR role or client-facing roles in consulting, finance, operations, or recruiting. Experience selling into asset managers, ownership groups, or real estate partners—ideally in proptech or mobility—is preferred. You should demonstrate strong relationship-building skills, creative communication abilities, data literacy with pipeline management experience, and proficiency in Salesforce or similar CRM platforms. A proven track record in structured, competitive, results-driven environments is essential, along with resilience, coachability, and clear ambition to advance into an Account Executive role. Regional travel is required as needed.
