Sales Development Associate

Sales Development Associate (Early Career | Architecture & Design Industry)

A growing boutique design and manufacturing company is seeking a Sales Development Associate to support a consultative, project-driven sales process serving the architecture, construction, and design (AEC) market.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their career who wants to build a strong foundation in B2B sales, client relationships, and the built environment while working closely with experienced sales leaders in a collaborative, people-first setting.


About the Team

We’re a boutique design and manufacturing company where people genuinely know each other, collaborate daily, and learn by doing. Our team is small enough that your work is visible and your contributions matter — but experienced enough to offer meaningful mentorship and guidance.

You’ll work directly with seasoned sales professionals, designers, and product experts who enjoy teaching, sharing context, and helping teammates grow. This is not a large, layered organization where work disappears into a system. It’s a hands-on, collaborative environment where you can clearly see how projects move from concept to completion.

If you’re looking for a place to learn, contribute, and build real relationships, this team offers that experience.


About the Role

As a Sales Development Associate, you’ll play a key role in supporting active sales opportunities and helping projects move smoothly through the pipeline. You’ll gain hands-on exposure to how products are specified, quoted, and sold into real-world construction and design projects.

This role offers strong training, direct access to senior team members, and clear growth potential for someone interested in building a long-term career in sales, account management, or business development.


What You’ll Do

  • Assist with preparing informal and formal quotes for active sales opportunities

  • Support outside sales representatives and regional sales leaders on live projects

  • Serve as a consistent, professional point of contact for clients throughout the sales process

  • Track opportunities, activity, and follow-ups using CRM tools

  • Review drawings, specifications, and assist with basic take-offs (training provided)

  • Coordinate internally with design, operations, and product teams

  • Support sales presentations, proposals, and marketing collateral

  • Learn the products, market, and consultative sales process through hands-on experience

  • Share client and market feedback with internal teams to improve processes and offerings


What We’re Looking For

  • Strong communication skills and a client-first mindset

  • Detail-oriented and organized, with the ability to manage multiple tasks and projects

  • Curious, proactive, and eager to learn

  • Comfortable working in a collaborative team environment

  • Interest in sales, client service, or the architecture/construction industry


Experience & Education

  • 0–3 years of experience in sales, customer service, account support, or a related role

  • Exposure to architecture, construction, design, or building products is a plus — not required

  • Familiarity with CRM systems (Salesforce or similar) is helpful, but training is provided

  • Bachelor’s degree preferred (business, communications, marketing, or related field)


Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive base salary plus performance-based incentive/commission opportunity

  • Comprehensive health benefits (multiple plan options available)

  • Paid time off and holidays

  • Flexible, professional, and collaborative work environment

  • Opportunity to grow with a stable and expanding boutique organization


Additional Information

  • Full-time, direct-hire position

  • Onsite in Denver office

  • Must be authorized to work in the U.S.

  • Background check required

  • Valid driver’s license required


Why This Role?
If you’re looking to break into B2B sales, learn from approachable experts, and grow within a close-knit team where your work truly matters, this role offers the exposure, mentorship, and environment to do just that.
