Business Development Representative, Los Angeles and Orange County
Southern California | Remote, Field-Based
Full-Time | $70,304 Base Salary + Performance-Based Commission
NextMod Headquarters: 6361 Box Springs Blvd., Riverside, CA 92507
Build Your Career While Building Better Communities
NextMod is growing, and we are looking for ambitious, relationship-driven professionals who want to grow with us.
We are a modular building manufacturer and full-service modular solutions provider operating within the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction industry. From our Riverside, California, manufacturing facility, we produce 100% American-made modular buildings that create space for students to learn, healthcare teams to serve patients, public agencies to support their communities, businesses to grow, and emergency teams to respond when they are needed most.
Our Business Development Representatives help bring those projects to life. They build trusted relationships, stay connected with customers, identify future facility needs, open new markets, and help organizations understand how NextMod’s purchase and leasing solutions can support their goals.
At NextMod, you will join a team of driven people who work hard, take ownership, support one another, and enjoy building something meaningful together. You will receive real responsibility, direct access to experienced leaders, and the opportunity to influence how your territory, and the company, grows.
We are building careers alongside buildings. Team members who demonstrate initiative, consistency, professionalism, and results will have opportunities to take on greater responsibility as NextMod expands.
