Your Impact from Day One
As a Business Development Manager (BDM) at CSols, you won't just sell services — you will serve as a strategic consultant to organizations transforming their scientific data management. Driving growth across the Western and Central US, you'll identify new opportunities, nurture client relationships, and position CSols as the premier provider of laboratory informatics solutions (including LIMS, ELN, and enterprise systems). Additionally, you'll be one of our pioneer business development hires helping bring CSols's new AI-enablement offerings to market.
The Team You'll Be Joining: Reporting directly to the VP of Sales, you will collaborate closely with delivery experts and peer sales reps to transform complex client needs into scoped, successful partnerships.
