About the role
The Business Development Coordinator (BDC) is a salaried, exempt professional role designed to increase producer effectiveness and accelerate revenue growth by providing advanced sales enablement support. Embedded within regional sales teams, the BDC serves as a subject-matter expert on sales tools, processes, and enablement initiatives. This role exercises independent judgment, applies specialized knowledge, and partners closely with sales leadership to improve technology adoption, sales execution, and producer productivity.
Business Development Coordinators relieve producers of administrative and technical burdens, allowing producers to focus on high-value client and prospect engagement. The role requires discretion, analytical thinking, cross-functional collaboration, and the ability to prioritize work based on business impact rather than prescribed task lists or hours.
