You thrive in complex sales environments and are energized by turning big ideas into successful engagements.

Who We Are :

At cove, we’re redefining the architectural landscape by merging design excellence with data science and sustainability.

Consultative Solution Design :

  • Lead discovery conversations to uncover client goals, pain points, and sustainability targets.
  • Collaborate with internal architecture and research teams to co-create tailored solutions.
  • Craft proposals that clearly communicate ROI and value-add from energy savings, design performance, and reduced delivery timelines.
  • Client Success & Growth :

  • Manage your pipeline and CRM (HubSpot) with rigor and precision.
  • Support project handoffs to ensure seamless client experience and internal coordination.
  • Identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities within existing accounts.
  • Track and report impact metrics to demonstrate the effectiveness of cove’s architectural solutions.
  • Industry Engagement & Market Leadership :

  • Represent cove at conferences, client events, and through thought leadership.
  • Stay ahead of industry trends to inform business strategy and client outreach.

  • Win your first project and guide a client through our consulting process
  • Build strong relationships with at least 10 key decision-makers
  • Understand the AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) industry and how we show the value of our services
  • By the End of Your First Year :

  • Exceed your sales goals by delivering real value to your clients
  • Be recognized as a go-to expert in architecture and sustainability
  • Help improve our services or internal processes by contributing to a company-wide project
  • Must Haves :

    Education & Experience :

  • 2–4 years of experience of successful full cycle sales experience
  • Demonstrated ability to close complex, consultative engagements.
  • Proven experience engaging with senior decision-makers and navigating long sales cycles.
  • Skills & Attributes :

  • Strategic thinker with tactical execution skills.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, especially when explaining technical ideas to non-technical audiences.
  • High emotional intelligence and relationship-building skills.
  • Passion for design, sustainability, and technology-driven transformation.
  • Bonus Points :

  • Background in architecture, engineering, construction, or design-build.
  • Familiarity with building performance metrics and sustainability standards.
  • Existing relationships in the real estate or design industries.
  • What’s In It for You :
