The Role:

As a Business Development Manager, you’ll be the key link between architectural vision and smart system capability. You’ll engage with architects, consultants, developers, and end-users to deliver automation solutions that support intelligent design outcomes and operational efficiency.

Work closely with architects, engineering consultants, contractors, and facility managers to specify smart solutions aligned with design intent and performance goals.

Present and promote integrated automation concepts that elevate building functionality, reduce energy consumption, and support sustainability certifications (e.g., Green Star, NABERS).

Manage bids, proposals, and commercial negotiations, leveraging your technical understanding to craft tailored solutions.

Collaborate internally with engineering, solutions, and project teams to ensure project alignment from concept to commissioning.

Stay informed on trends in smart buildings, building codes, digital twins, and intelligent infrastructure.

Ideal Candidate:

3–5+ years’ experience in technical sales, business development, or specification roles within building automation, HVAC, electrical systems, or related architectural tech fields.

Strong knowledge of BMS, EMS, HVAC controls, and integrated building platforms.

An understanding of how automation supports architectural outcomes in modern, sustainable buildings.

Ability to engage with design professionals and interpret specifications and drawings.

Commercial acumen, strong presentation skills, and a consultative, solution-driven approach.

Qualifications in Engineering, Architecture, Building Services, or related fields are highly desirable.
