Job description

• We are seeking a driven, locally based Business Development Manager to grow Beachside VR's managed portfolio by adding new units to our inventory. This is a full-cycle sales role focused on signing property owners onto our management services — from first contact to closed agreement.
• This is a local, field-based position serving Brevard County. You'll be the face of Beachside in the community: attending local marketing events and realtor meetups, running broker lunch-and-learns, conducting property walkthroughs, and building the relationships that turn property owners into long-term clients.
• The ideal candidate is a self-starting closer who thrives on being out in the market, understands the local real estate landscape, and can clearly communicate the value of professional short-term rental management. A proactive, relationship-driven approach is essential.
• Consistent growth in new units added to Beachside VR's managed inventory
• A full, well-managed pipeline with reliable follow-up
• Strong local presence — active at events, realtor meetups, and broker lunch-and-learns
• Smooth handoffs from signed agreement to onboarding
• Accurate, up-to-date CRM and clear activity reporting

• Attend local realtor meetups and build referral relationships with agents and brokers
• Plan and run broker/realtor lunch-and-learns to generate leads and educate referral partners
• Maintain a strong, consistent local presence throughout Brevard County
• CRM & Pipeline Management

• Keep a healthy, well-organized pipeline and consistent follow-up cadence
• Track activity and report on pipeline, conversion, and units added
• Coordination & Handoff
• Partner with operations to ensure a smooth handoff from signed agreement to onboarding
