About ONIT Group of Companies The ONIT Group of Companies is a rapidly scaling and entrepreneurial organization with businesses spanning Recruiting, AI-Lead Generation, Skincare, Water Savings and Energy.
We are builders.
We identify opportunities, develop businesses, create high-performing teams and pursue markets where we believe we can create meaningful value.
Our culture is built around ONIT One Excellence — ONE Team | ONE Mission and a commitment to entrepreneurship, accountability, sales excellence, innovation, continuous improvement and execution.
Build. Sell. Raise. Scale.
The ONIT Group of Companies is seeking an accomplished, commercially driven and highly entrepreneurial Director, Business Development & Strategic Growth to work directly alongside our CEO and help drive the next stage of our expansion.
ONIT is a rapidly scaling group of businesses with interests across multiple industries, including Recruiting, AI-Lead Generation, Skincare, Water Savings and Energy.
This is not a traditional business development position.
The successful candidate will act as a right-hand strategic and commercial partner to the CEO, helping oversee, develop and scale businesses across the ONIT Group of Companies. You will work directly with the CEO and teams to drive sales performance, identify growth opportunities, raise capital, build strategic relationships and ensure ideas translate into measurable business results.
We are looking for someone who has built, sold, led and scaled.
You must be comfortable moving between the boardroom and the sales floor—working with the CEO on strategy one moment and helping a sales leader improve performance, and execution the next.
The right person thinks like an entrepreneur, sells like a top producer, leads like an executive and executes like an owner.
What You'll Own
Capital Raising & Investor Development
- Lead and support capital-raising initiatives for ONIT Group businesses and selected growth ventures.
- Develop relationships with investors, family offices, private equity, venture capital, strategic investors and financing partners.

- Serve as a key right-hand business partner to the CEO across the ONIT Group of Companies.

- Help ensure leadership teams remain focused on the activities that generate revenue, growth and enterprise value.
- Represent the CEO and ONIT Group in selected strategic, commercial and external relationships.
Sales Leadership & Revenue Growth
- Work directly with company leaders and sales management to accelerate revenue growth across the Group.
- Help drive and strengthen sales management, sales leadership, accountability and execution.

- Build business cases and go-to-market strategies for new ventures.
- Drive cross-company opportunities that leverage the capabilities and relationships of the broader ONIT Group.
What We're Looking For We are looking for someone with a demonstrated record of results—not simply someone who understands the theory of business development.
The ideal candidate will bring:
- 10+ years of progressive experience in sales leadership, business development, strategic growth, capital raising, entrepreneurship or senior commercial leadership.
- A strong personal sales background with demonstrated success generating significant revenue and closing complex opportunities.

- A willingness to challenge assumptions, solve problems and take ownership of results.
- A strong bias toward action, accountability, revenue and growth.
You May Be a Strong Fit If You... Have personally sold and closed significant business.
Have successfully led salespeople and sales leaders.
Know how to take an underperforming sales organization and make it better.
Have built or scaled a business.
Have raised money or successfully worked with investors.
Can walk into a new business, quickly understand how it makes money and identify where the growth opportunities are.
Are comfortable working directly with a CEO who moves quickly and expects execution.
Know how to turn ideas into plans, plans into action and action into revenue.
