Business Development Consultant

Join The League of Credit Unions & Affiliates as a Business Development Consultant to join our Business Development Team. The League provides a platform for advocacy, collaboration, and innovation, representing 374 credit unions in Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Virginia and their 33.4 million members. As a consultant, you will play a key role in marketing and selling LEVERAGE products and services to credit unions while identifying emerging opportunities that support the League’s growth and revenue goals.

You will lead the planning and coordination of events that promote our solutions, develop strong relationships with partner vendors, and collaborate on joint initiatives such as calls, presentations, and lunch‑and‑lunches. You will guide credit unions in assessing their needs and identifying tailored LEVERAGE solutions, prepare and deliver proposals, secure new and renewed contracts, and support customers through the implementation process.

Our consultants stay current on all LEVERAGE offerings and industry trends, follow up with existing clients to ensure satisfaction, and proactively address issues by coordinating with management, vendors and customers. You will also work closely with product managers to execute product‑specific sales and marketing plans, maintain thorough records and update Salesforce with key credit union insights, activity notes and contact information.

Additionally, you will assist leadership with sales forecasting, contribute to product development, serve as a liaison to assigned leadership councils, and bring forward innovative ideas that help credit unions stay informed on industry trends and evolving solutions.
