Analyst, Business Development/Sales
About the Position
We are actively seeking someone who wakes up ready to dial. This is a pure hunter position. Your job is to fill seats in Performance Trust’s educational programs and generate introductory meetings for our senior advisors. That’s it. No account management. No babysitting existing clients. You are the tip of the spear.
You will be on the phone. You will be writing sharp, compelling emails. You will hear “no” and you will call back anyway, because you understand that in this business, timing and persistence are everything. The CEO or CFO who brushes you off in January may be your best attendee in September. You play the long game without losing the urgency.
This role is the engine of our front-end pipeline. Performance Trust’s business model runs on relationships that start with education. Our programs introduce community bank CEOs and CFOs to a better way of thinking about their balance sheets. Your mission is to get those executives in the room. Everything downstream depends on it.
This is an on-site position in our Dallas, Texas office. We want you here, building the habit and the culture of consistent outreach.
