Business Development Manager
Hi! We're Forerunner.
Stronger, more resilient communities are built by the people inside government and regulated industries who keep critical infrastructure running. But they're working against real headwinds: fragmented data, field crews without the right tools, and high-stakes decisions made without a complete picture.
Forerunner exists to fix that. We build intelligent software that connects the systems these agencies and firms already rely on, fills the gaps those systems can't, and turns fragmented information into decisions and actions that reduce liability, surface revenue, and prevent small problems from becoming emergencies.
About the Position
We're looking for a Business Development Manager to build and lead our business development function out of our Portland, ME office. You'll manage and grow a team of Business Development Representatives while owning outbound strategy across both our public-sector pipeline (city, county, and state agencies) and our growing private-sector pipeline (construction, ports/terminals, and energy/renewable operators).
This is a hands-on player-coach role. You'll spend real time in the details — refining messaging, listening to calls, working segments yourself — while also building the systems, hiring plan, and reporting rhythm that let the team scale.
