Are you the kind of person who can walk into a room full of strangers and walk out with new friends—and new business leads?
Do you love being on the go, meeting people, and building genuine connections?

O'Connor Sales is seeking a very social, outgoing, and self-motivated Business Development Manager to join our team and represent our manufacturers in the landscape, irrigation, and plumbing industries throughout the Greater Bay Area.

About O'Connor Sales:

We’re a trusted, independent manufacturer’s rep firm with decades of experience in the field. Our team is known for its deep industry knowledge, strong relationships, and a hands-on, boots-on-the-ground approach.

• Promote and represent leading manufacturers in the landscape and irrigation, plumbing, and water works supply space.
• Regularly visit job sites, client offices, supply houses, and industry events.
• Identify new opportunities, follow up on leads, and manage your pipeline from introduction to close.
• Provide product education, training, and support to both new and existing clients.
• Attend trade shows, lunch-and-learns, and association events to stay visible and build community.

You’re a Great Fit If You Are:

• Naturally charismatic and outgoing—people remember your name and love working with you.
• A self-starter who thrives outside the office and doesn’t need hand-holding.
• Passionate about building real relationships and growing long-term partnerships.
• Comfortable in both sales and technical conversations (especially with contractors and engineers).
• Organized, professional, and excellent at follow-up and follow-through.

What We Offer:

• Competitive base salary + performance-based commission
• Mileage reimbursement
• Full benefits package: health, dental, vision, 401(k), paid time off
• Supportive team and leadership with decades of industry knowledge
• Autonomy, flexibility, and a dynamic work environment where no two days are the same
• Opportunities to grow your territory and your career

At O’Connor Sales, we’re not just building pipelines—we’re building relationships.
If you're someone who thrives on face-to-face interaction, enjoys being out in the field, and takes pride in representing quality products and trusted brands, we want to hear from you.
