Director of Business Development & Client Expierence

Date posted: April 13, 2026

Pay: $120,000.00 - $400,000.00 per year

Job description:

POSITION SUMMARY

PJ Builders is hiring its first Director of Business Development & Client Experience — a strategic leadership role built to transform how the company grows. This is not a transactional sales position. It is an executive-level function responsible for building the sales, client experience, and marketing infrastructure that will carry PJ Builders from $8M to $80M.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

PJ Builders is a premier luxury custom home builder operating in the Park City, Utah mountain resort market. Founded and led by Pete Olson, the company has earned a strong reputation for craftsmanship, integrity, and enduring client relationships. With a lean, high-performance team of 9–11 people and $8M in current annual revenue, PJ Builders is positioned for significant growth ahead of the 2034 Winter Olympics , a once-in-a-generation demand catalyst for luxury construction in the Park City market.

The company's 10-year vision targets $80M in annual revenue, with a Year 1 target of $16M. The construction team already has the capacity to handle double the current volume — the growth bottleneck is sales, relationships, and brand infrastructure. This hire addresses that directly.

Four forces make this hire urgent:

• The construction team has 2× capacity — growth is gated by sales and relationships, not execution.
• Pete Olson currently owns all sales. This role frees him to lead strategy, partnerships, and culture.
• Park City is positioned for a surge in luxury construction demand ahead of the 2034 Olympics — a narrow window to capture market share.
• PJ Builders has strong brand equity and limited formal sales or marketing infrastructure. The right leader professionalizes the machine.

OBJECTIVES

• Own the full sales cycle — from first contact to signed contract, thru build and warranty period
• Build and manage referral networks with architects, interior designers, and real estate advisors
• Manage the CRM pipeline (HubSpot) with full visibility into opportunity forecast
• Qualify opportunities to protect team capacity and focus on the right clients
• Lead discovery and early budget conversations with high-net-worth clients
• Design and deliver a best-in-class luxury client journey
• Establish communication standards and touchpoints that build deep trust
• Partner with Project Managers for a seamless pre-construction handoff
• Create repeatable, high-touch experience processes
• Monitor client satisfaction and proactively resolve friction
• Own brand messaging and luxury positioning
• Guide website, photography, and project storytelling

COMPETENCIES

• Relationship Builder — proven ability to develop trust with high-net-worth clients and referral partners over long sales cycles
• Strategic Systems Thinker — builds scalable sales and marketing processes; doesn't just close deals
• Luxury Brand Ambassador — deep appreciation for design, craftsmanship, and the nuance of the ultra-premium client experience
• Executive Communicator — strong emotional intelligence; comfortable partnering directly with ownership and leading cross-functional alignment

EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE

• 7–15 years in luxury residential construction, architecture, design, real estate, or a high-end service industry Demonstrated track record building referral networks and managing long-cycle relationships with high-net-worth clients
• Experience building or managing CRM systems (HubSpot preferred)

Compensation

Base salary $120,00 - 140,000

Total Comp $160000 - $500000

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

Ability to sit, stand, and work at a computer for extended periods Ability to attend in-person meetings, client site visits, and industry events Occasional travel as required for client and partner meetings
