Build Relationships. Apply Your Construction Expertise. Grow With Us.

FBi Buildings is looking for a business development leader with experience in the local commercial construction market to guide our project acquisition effort in the South Bend / Elkhart / Mishawaka

Previous sales experience is not required. We’re looking for someone that knows how to build, is well connected in the commercial construction market, builds high trust relationships, and generates unique building solutions.

Your background might be in general contracting, carpentry, steel buildings, post frame buildings, or building supplies. Field leadership, project management, estimating, material supply roles are all relevant backgrounds. You may not think of yourself as a salesperson, but many of our best salespeople were builders first. What matters most is your knowledge of construction, industry relationships, and ability to represent FBi with credibility and integrity.

• Develop and strengthen relationships with general contractors, architects, developers, and agricultural and industrial owners.
• Stay connected to project pipelines within your territory to develop and close new project contracts.
• Represent FBi at industry events, trade associations, and networking opportunities.
• Identify opportunities where post-frame design-build is a competitive advantage.
• Collaborate with internal teams to pursue projects before they reach open bid.
• Contribute to territory growth planning with leadership.

• Work closely with preconstruction, estimating, operations, and executive leadership.
• Provide feedback from the field to improve positioning and strategy.
• Ensure smooth handoff from relationship development to project execution.

• 5+ years of experience in construction, general contracting, post-frame, or building supply.
• Working knowledge of commercial, industrial, or agricultural construction processes.
• Experience interacting with contractors, architects, engineers, developers, or facility owners.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to build trust with industry professionals.
• Self-motivated and organized, with the ability to manage opportunities and follow through.
• Comfortable using CRM tools or willing to learn.
• Construction professional who speaks the language of the jobsite and the boardroom.
• Understands how projects are priced, built, and delivered.
• Naturally relationship-oriented and credible with peers.
• Motivated by performance-based compensation and long-term career opportunity. Prior sales or formal business development experience are helpful but not required.

This is an opportunity for a construction professional to transition into a strategic growth role while leveraging deep industry knowledge.

If you understand construction and are ready to help grow a company that values expertise, relationships, and long-term impact, we would welcome the conversation.
