Job Description & How to Apply Below
Location: Iowa

At Communications Engineering Company (CEC), business development isn’t about pushing products—it’s about building partnerships that last.

We’re looking for a Business Development Manager with experience in low voltage or integrated technology solutions—think AV, physical security (access control, CCTV), structured cabling, or critical communications—who approaches growth with curiosity, integrity, and a long-term mindset.

This role is centered on understanding client needs, solving real problems, and representing CEC in the market and community. You’ll work alongside a tenured technical and operations team to deliver solutions that support critical infrastructure, safety, and connectivity across industries.

What You’ll Do Build & Grow Relationships
  • Develop new business while strengthening existing client partnerships
  • Establish trust through consistent, reliable engagement
  • Serve as a primary point of contact for client communication and relationship management
  • Understand client environments, challenges, and long-term goals
  • Collaborate with internal teams to shape tailored solutions
  • Guide opportunities from early conversations through close
  • Build and maintain a healthy, intentional pipeline
  • Track activity, opportunities, and forecasts within CRM systems
  • Meet or exceed defined sales and growth targets
Represent CEC in the Market
  • Participate in industry events, networking, and community engagement
  • Strengthen CEC’s presence and reputation within the region
  • Stay informed on market trends, competitive landscape, and client needs
What This Role Is (and Is Not) This role is:
  • Relationship-driven and consultative
  • Focused on long-term partnerships over short-term wins
  • Collaborative, working closely with technical and operational teams
This role is not:
  • Transactional or high-volume sales
  • A solo effort without internal support
  • Focused solely on quick wins or short sales cycles
Who You Are
  • A relationship builder who earns trust through consistency and follow-through
  • Thirve in selling into commercial or healthcare environments with solutions tied to infrastructure, safety, or building systems
  • Naturally curious—you ask questions, listen well, and seek to understand before solving
  • Comfortable navigating technical conversations (or motivated to learn quickly)
  • Self-directed, accountable, and motivated by meaningful work
  • Active or interested in being active within your local business community
Qualifications
  • Experience in business development, sales, or account management
  • Hands‑on sales experience in AV, security systems, cabling, or related infrastructure solutions—this is not a general sales role
  • Proven ability to develop and maintain client relationships
  • Strong communication, organization, and problem‑solving skills
  • Experience working with CRM systems and managing a sales pipeline
  • Ability to collaborate across teams to deliver client solutions
  • Competitive base salary + performance‑based incentives
  • Support from an experienced and collaborative team
Why CEC

CEC is a company built on long‑term relationships, technical excellence, and doing the right thing—consistently. This is an opportunity to be part of a team that values both performance and how that performance is achieved.
