Job description
Chicago and Detroit sit at the center of North America's automotive and advanced manufacturing economy, where innovation, mobility, infrastructure, and industry come together. From global automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to EV manufacturers, battery producers, mobility technology companies, and advanced industrial operations, the region continues to shape the future of transportation and manufacturing.
As supply chains evolve and electrification, sustainability, digital manufacturing, and regulatory change reshape the industry, the opportunity is not just to adapt, but to lead.
By combining deep automotive market knowledge with GHD's global expertise in environmental services, water, energy, infrastructure, digital transformation, and sustainability, we help manufacturers and suppliers improve operational performance, accelerate growth, reduce risk, and build resilient businesses positioned for long-term success.
As part of our team, you'll have the opportunity to leverage a global network of technical specialists and decades of industry experience to deliver meaningful outcomes for clients across the automotive value chain.
Our workplace thrives on a hybrid model, combining in-office collaboration and flexibility. Join us in the office three days a week to contribute, connect, and excel in our vibrant environment.
Who are we looking for?
In response to continued growth within our Market Team, our Central Region Market group is looking to bring onboard a motivated Business Development Partner to expand GHD's presence across the Automotive sector.

To support client engagement and collaboration across the region, this position will be based in either our Detroit, MI or Chicago, IL office.
Come plan and execute growth strategies for major existing and emerging accounts where developing executive relationships, identifying new opportunities, and applying strategic account management skills are critical. The role requires a strong understanding of the automotive ecosystem, including OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, EV manufacturing, battery production, and the operational challenges facing modern manufacturers.
Working with an energetic and high-performing team, this position offers a variety of responsibilities, including:
- Key Account Management: Manage and grow strategic relationships with automotive OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, EV manufacturers, battery producers, and advanced manufacturing clients. Lead account planning activities and coordinate multidisciplinary teams to deliver value across the client organization.

- Client Relationship Development / Prospecting: Identify and pursue opportunities with emerging automotive, mobility, EV, battery, and advanced manufacturing companies. Develop relationships with key decision-makers and influencers across target accounts.
- Client Relationship Management (CRM) Data: Maintain accurate client and opportunity information within CRM systems to support account planning, forecasting, pursuit management, and business development activities.
- Sales Opportunities Creation: Develop a strong network within the automotive and manufacturing community through participation in industry associations, conferences, trade organizations, and client events to identify growth opportunities and strengthen GHD's market presence.
- Operational Compliance: Maintain a strong understanding of industry regulations, corporate governance requirements, and GHD policies while ensuring compliance in all business development activities.
- Personal Capability Building: Continue developing expertise in automotive manufacturing, electrification, supply chain trends, sustainability, advanced technologies, and industry best practices through ongoing professional development and market engagement.
What you will bring to the team:
- Bachelor's or Master's Degree in Engineering, Environmental Science, Business, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, or a related field.
- Strong knowledge of the automotive, mobility, EV, battery, or advanced manufacturing sectors and the business drivers shaping the industry.
