Business Development and Emergency Response Manager

The Opportunity

Paul Davis Restoration of Northwest Connecticut is growing, and we are looking for a driven Business Development Manager / Emergency Recovery Coordinator to help generate new business across our market.

This is a hybrid role combining outside business development, relationship management, and emergency-response lead generation. During normal business hours, you will build relationships with insurance professionals, property managers, business owners, commercial facilities, and referral partners.

When significant fires or property losses occur, you may also respond as an Emergency Recovery Coordinator, helping affected property owners understand their next steps while identifying restoration opportunities for Paul Davis.

This is not a desk-based marketing role. We are looking for someone who enjoys being in the community, meeting people, developing relationships, prospecting, and generating revenue.

What You'll Do

Drive New Business

• Build relationships with insurance agents, adjusters, property managers, business owners, facility managers, and commercial property owners.
• Develop referral partnerships with plumbers, HVAC companies, roofers, electricians, realtors, and other professionals.
• Prospect through calls, email, LinkedIn, networking, in-person visits, and scheduled meetings.
• Develop commercial Emergency Response Plans and preferred-vendor relationships.
• Attend local networking, industry, and community events.
• Maintain consistent follow-up with prospects, accounts, and referral partners.
• Track opportunities, referrals, and activity in our CRM.

Respond to Emergency Opportunities

• Monitor designated sources for significant fires and property-loss opportunities.
• Respond to qualifying losses when appropriate, including some evenings and weekends.
• Represent Paul Davis professionally with homeowners, business owners, property managers, adjusters, and other stakeholders.
• Educate potential customers about the restoration process and Paul Davis services.
• Help convert qualified opportunities into restoration projects and transition them to our operations team.
• Participate in an emergency-response/on-call rotation with management support.

What Success Looks Like

You will be measured on both activity and results, including:

• Qualified opportunities generated
• New referral and commercial relationships
• Revenue from self-generated opportunities
• Emergency losses converted into projects
• Consistent prospecting and follow-up
• CRM and pipeline management
• Growth of recurring referral sources

The goal is simple: turn relationships and opportunities into profitable restoration work.

• A natural relationship builder
• Comfortable prospecting and asking for business

• Organized and accountable
• Able to communicate professionally with executives, adjusters, property managers, contractors, and homeowners
• Responsive and comfortable working with urgency
• Empathetic when helping people dealing with fires, floods, and other property losses
• Motivated by performance-based compensation

• Willingness to attend occasional evening events
