About CitygreenCitygreen designs and supplies the engineered systems that keep street trees alive through drought, root compaction, and urban stormwater load. Our tree vaults, structural soil systems, and stormwater solutions are specified in landscape architecture and civil engineering projects across North America, Australia, and beyond. When we get it right, trees live for decades where they otherwise wouldn't.The RoleWe're hiring a senior Business Development Manager to own a cross‐border territory covering the Greater Toronto Area, broader Ontario, and the East Coast of the United States. This is a specification‐selling role: your job is to get Citygreen systems written into project specifications at the landscape architecture and civil engineering studios that shape the built environment across this region. The role spans two markets—Ontario and East Coast USA—so regular travel into US East Coast cities is expected. You will work closely with our technical team, operations team in Australia, and our US partner business (Citygreen Systems LLC) but will own the territory completely. The sales cycle runs 12‐24 months from first specification conversation to booked revenue. You'll own a disciplined pipeline in CRM and be remote, self‐managed, and on the road roughly six nights a month across both sides of the border.What You'll DoOwn the full BDM cycle across Ontario and East Coast USA – prospecting, first meetings, technical presentations, specification development with LA and civil studios, tender support, and closeBuild a $2 M+ qualified pipeline in year one, with 25+ active specifications across named LA and civil firms, converting into meaningful booked revenue through year twoMaintain active relationships with the top landscape architecture and civil engineering studios across the GTA, broader Ontario, and priority US East Coast metrosRun technical lunch‐and‐learns, site visits, and CPD sessions with specifier audiences on both sides of the borderPartner with contractors, distributors,

You don't wait for marketing to feed you leads. The first thing you do on Monday morning is look at who you haven't spoken to yet this quarterYou own your number. When a spec falls over, you ask what you should have done differently – not why the market was unkindWe hire on Ideal Team Player principles: hungry, humble, and smart. Hungry means self‐driven and relentless; humble means you defer to engineers and architects on technical points without losing authority, and you take feedback without defensiveness; smart (people‐smart) means you read rooms, know when to push and when to wait, and build rapport across stylesSelf‐starter.
