  • Lead & Job Flow Coordination

  • Receive and process inbound referrals through Luxor CRM and ensure immediate job creation in DASH.
  • Monitor jobs throughout the lifecycle, ensuring partners receive real-time updates and post-job summaries.

  • Required Qualifications

  • Ability to analyze performance metrics and adapt activities to improve outcomes.
  • Valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and ability to travel within assigned territory.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience organizing training sessions, workshops, or lunch-and-learns for partner businesses.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple partnerships simultaneously in fast-paced environments.
  • Core Competencies

  • Relationship Builder – Earns trust through consistent follow-up, reliability, and adding value.
  • Urgency & Ownership – Acts decisively to support partners and ensure rapid response to referrals.
  • Process Discipline – Maintains CRM data integrity and follows structured engagement playbooks.

  • Communication Excellence – Communicates clearly with both internal teams and external partners.
