Business Development Representative
About the Role
ServiceMaster Restore by ELE is independently owned and operated, proudly serving homeowners, businesses, and property professionals throughout Anne Arundel County and surrounding communities. We're a growing local business backed by one of the most trusted names in disaster restoration. As we expand, we're looking for an ambitious relationship-builder to help us become the go-to restoration company for water, fire, mold, storm, and specialty cleaning services.
Your mission is to create partnerships that lead to restoration opportunities while helping local families and businesses recover from unexpected property damage. You'll build relationships with:
- Insurance agents and adjusters
- Property managers
- Plumbers
- HVAC contractors
- Roofing contractors
- Realtors
- Facility managers
- Local business owners
- Community organizations
This role is unique because the relationships you build today can make all the difference when a pipe bursts at 2 a.m., a business experiences a fire loss, or a homeowner discovers mold. You're not just selling a service; you're connecting people with a trusted team that helps restore homes, businesses, and peace of mind during stressful situations.
