How You’ll Make an Impact

This role is focused entirely on new business growth. You’ll introduce Halo to new organizations, initiate relationships with decision makers, and build a strong pipeline of opportunities through proactive outreach and networking.

• Collaborate with internal teams to develop thoughtful, strategic proposals
• Own the full new business lifecycle from first contact through close and handoff
• Maintain a healthy, self sourced pipeline and accurate CRM activity
• Represent Halo with confidence and credibility at industry events, site visits, and client meetings

What You Bring

• 3 to 6 years of experience in business development or sales with a new business focus
• Proven ability to generate opportunities without reliance on inbound leads
• Experience in events, hospitality, experiential marketing, destination services, or a related field
• Strong communication and relationship building skills
• Comfort initiating conversations, following up, and staying persistent
• Organized, accountable, and motivated by progress and growth
• Experience using CRM tools to track outreach and pipeline activity

The Halo Way

At Halo, culture isn’t a buzzword; it’s the foundation for everything we do. Thoughtfulness, creativity, and trust are woven into every interaction, every collaboration, every client experience. We believe the way we work with one another is just as important as the work itself.

We are a women- and LGBTQ+-owned and led collective, and that spirit of inclusion, integrity, and perspective is reflected in the way we operate.

We move with purpose. We hold ourselves to the highest standards. We make space for people to grow, contribute meaningfully, and feel genuinely valued. Our culture is one of generosity and excellence. We encourage curiosity, initiative, and calm leadership. We support one another with intention, and we celebrate both the big wins and the quiet contributions that make them possible.

Our team is sharp, kind, and deeply collaborative, committed to building experiences that are just as seamless behind the scenes as they are in the spotlight.

Here’s what you can expect from life at Halo:

• A creatively energized, respectful, and high-performing environment
• Time to connect through thoughtfully planned team outings and off-sites
• Clear communication, mutual trust, and space to own your work
• Competitive compensation with performance-based bonuses
