Business Development Specialist

Intention.ly, a newly formed marketing, and growth consulting firm, based in the Greater Philadelphia area, is seeking a Business Development Specialist to join their fast-moving business. 

Intention.ly helps financial advisory businesses, and the companies supporting them, identify, map, and track clear paths for reaching their next phase of success.

• Organized: You can manage highly interdependent, complex projects and juggle multiple schedules across various time zones to keep potential new business details moving forward.

• Ambitious: You are passionate about what you do and are eager to make an impact. You thrive in a fast-moving, dynamic, hyper-growth environment and can operate fluidly between the 30,000-foot strategy level and the micro-detail to get things right.

• A Team Player: You enjoy collaborating with not only a team of marketing experts at Intention.ly but also with clients of all shapes and sizes. You can build relationships and work within a range of disciplines to execute your work.
