Strategic Partnership Representative – Business Development

Hudson Valley Home Inspection | Hudson Valley, NY | 1099

Turn Relationships Into Revenue — And Get Paid for the Business You Build.

Are you the person who walks into a networking event and leaves knowing half the room?

Do you enjoy building relationships, making connections, and turning conversations into business opportunities?

Hudson Valley Home Inspection is looking for a relationship-driven Strategic Partnership Representative to grow our network of Realtors and referral partners throughout the Hudson Valley.

This isn't a sit-behind-a-desk sales position. You'll be out in the community building genuine relationships—and when the partnerships you develop generate business, you share in the revenue.

Compensation

$30,000 Annual Base (for PT hours) Uncapped Revenue Share Quarterly Bonuses

Revenue Share

Earn a percentage of gross inspection revenue generated by the referral partners you personally develop and activate:

• 3% for months 1–6 following partner activation
• 1.5% for months 7–12 from that same partner

The goal isn't to find a Realtor who sends us one inspection. We want you to build relationships that produce ongoing business.

Quarterly Performance Bonuses

• 15 closed inspections — $500
• 20 closed inspections — $1,200
• 25 closed inspections — $2,000
• 30 closed inspections — $3,500

Your earning potential grows with the business you build.

What You'll Do

• Build relationships with Realtors and other strategic referral partners throughout the Hudson Valley.
• Attend networking, Realtor, Chamber, industry, and community events.
• Identify and develop high-potential referral partners.
• Schedule one-on-one meetings and follow-up conversations.
• Introduce prospective partners to Hudson Valley Home Inspection and communicate what makes us different.
• Onboard qualified referral partners into our system.
• Help new partners move from interested to sending their first inspection referral.
• Maintain relationships with producing partners to encourage ongoing referrals.
• Keep referral activity and opportunities current in the CRM.
• Work with leadership when additional support is needed to help close an opportunity.

We'll Teach You Our Business

Home inspection experience is not required.

Your initial training will include:

• Approximately 1–2 weeks shadowing our home inspectors to understand the customer experience and services we provide.

You bring the relationship-building skills. We'll teach you the home inspection business.

• A natural connector and relationship builder.
• Confident walking into a room and starting conversations.

• Persistent with follow-up without being pushy.
• Highly organized and self-motivated.
• Comfortable working independently.
• Motivated by performance-based compensation.
• Professional, dependable, and accountable.
• Familiar with the Hudson Valley business community.

Experience in business development, outside sales, real estate, mortgage lending, title, insurance, property services, home services, or professional networking is especially valuable.
