Build Relationships. Close Deals. Create Recurring Income.

Cleanwerks is seeking an ambitious, self-motivated Business Development Executive to expand our commercial cleaning portfolio throughout Metro Detroit.

We're looking for someone who knows how to open doors, build meaningful business relationships, and turn opportunities into long-term commercial contracts.

This is an ideal opportunity for an established sales professional, real estate agent, entrepreneur, property management professional, or highly connected individual who wants the flexibility to earn additional income without being tied to a traditional 9-to-5 schedule.

This is a true business development role—not a referral position.

You will take ownership of the sales process, from identifying prospects and building relationships to coordinating walkthroughs, presenting proposals, and securing signed service agreements.

Why Join Cleanwerks?

• 40% Upfront Commission: Earn 40% of the first month's collected service revenue on each qualifying account.
• Monthly Residual Income: Earn an additional 1.5% of collected monthly service revenue for up to 12 months on qualifying accounts.
• Uncapped Earning Potential: Your compensation grows with your sales performance.
• Flexible Schedule: Work around your existing professional or personal commitments.
• Established Business: Represent a commercial cleaning company backed by more than 20 years of industry experience.
• Operational Support: Our cleaning teams handle service delivery while you focus on growing the business.
• Professional Growth: Opportunity to expand your portfolio of commercial clients and take on additional business development responsibilities.

What You'll Be Responsible For

• Independently identify and pursue new commercial cleaning opportunities throughout Metro Detroit.
• Develop relationships with business owners, property managers, facility directors, and commercial real estate professionals.
• Conduct outreach through networking, cold calling, email, LinkedIn, and in-person business development.
• Schedule and coordinate facility walkthroughs with prospective clients.
• Gather client requirements and coordinate competitive service proposals.
• Present proposals, negotiate within approved pricing guidelines, and secure signed commercial cleaning agreements.
• Maintain an organized sales pipeline and provide regular progress updates.
• Coordinate new account onboarding with our operations team.
• Consistently generate new monthly recurring contract revenue.

Who We're Looking For

Our ideal candidate is confident, professional, relationship-oriented, and capable of working independently.

Preferred qualifications:

• Previous experience in B2B sales, business development, commercial real estate, property management, or a related field.
• Established professional relationships with business owners or commercial decision-makers.
• Strong communication, negotiation, and follow-up skills.
• Ability to manage the sales process from prospecting through closing.
• Comfortable working independently and being compensated based on results.
• Reliable transportation for local business meetings and facility walkthroughs.
• Experience selling recurring services is a plus.

Commercial cleaning industry experience is helpful but not required.

Compensation & Earnings Potential

We believe in rewarding individuals who generate meaningful business growth.

Example: One $3,000/month commercial cleaning contract

• Initial commission: $1,200
• Monthly residual: $45
• Potential total commission over 12 qualifying months: $1,740

Secure five similar accounts, and your potential compensation would total $8,700 over their respective 12-month qualifying periods.

Commission Payment Terms:

Initial commissions are earned after a new account has maintained at least 45 days of active service, required customer payments have been collected, and all conditions of the written commission agreement have been satisfied.

Monthly residual commissions are based on qualifying collected revenue from active accounts for up to 12 months.

This position is 100% commission-based, with no guaranteed salary or minimum earnings. All commissions are subject to the written compensation agreement and applicable law.
