Love Building Relationships?
Come Grow With Us.
At Cambridge Landscape, we believe great business starts with great relationships. We're looking for a Business Developer who genuinely enjoys meeting people, building connections, and turning those relationships into long-term partnerships. This is more than a traditional sales role. You'll be out in the market getting to know property managers, owners, HOAs, developers, and other decision-makers—learning what they need, showing them what Cambridge Landscape can do, and helping bring new opportunities through the door.
About the Role
We're looking for someone who loves networking with people and loves winning. You might come from landscape construction, commercial landscape maintenance, property services, facility services, or another relationship-driven B2B sales environment. Industry experience is valuable, but we're especially interested in someone who knows how to build trust, create opportunities, and follow through.
