Business Relations Manager Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Business Relations Manager

1-800-SWEEPER Members Marketing

Location: Headquarters Toledo, OH Travel: Industry events, member visits, and annual summit

Why This Role Stands Out

We're not just hiring a manager, we're looking for an integrator of people, ideas, and opportunities.

At 1-800-SWEEPER, you'll step into a highly visible, relationship-driven leadership role where you'll connect a national network of business owners, vendors, and industry partners helping them all grow together.

Through Members Marketing, who owns the vanity phone number 1-800-SWEEPER (www.1800sweeper.com) and the Sweeper Summit & Equipment Expo (www.sweepersummit.com), we bring together independently owned power sweeping companies across North America. The 1-800-SWEEPER network enables national-scale brand recognition and service delivery while leveraging meaningful purchasing power for members and exclusive peer-to-peer industry education across the 1-800-SWEEPER organization.

This position is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy + execution, enjoys building something meaningful without being buried in bureaucracy, and values being part of a close-knit, entrepreneurial team. You'll work alongside a business owner with nearly 50 years of experience whose leadership style is creative with high expectations yet flexible, passionate, loyal, family-oriented, and deeply committed to the success of the people around him.

If you've led a buying group, managed franchise like multi-location operations, or built high-level vendor partnerships, this could be your next move.
