Job Description

District Development Manager

 

Reports To: Regional Vice President

 

The District Development Manager (DDM) is responsible for building and leading new market territories for Crane 1 Services — from the ground up through sustained growth. This role blends entrepreneurial drive with operational discipline, overseeing every phase of district creation: market entry, customer development, team building, facility operations, and long-term performance.

Unlike a short-term market launch role, the DDM will not only establish each district but also own and operate it, ensuring profitability, cultural alignment, and long-term market leadership consistent with Crane 1’s standards.

 

Salary: $140k-$160k

Key Responsibilities

Market Development & Strategy

  • Conduct in-depth market research to identify and validate high-potential territories.
  • Build detailed business plans and financial models to secure leadership approval and guide execution.
  • Define the go-to-market strategy, pricing framework, and performance targets for the district.
  • Develop strategic partnerships and community relationships to establish a strong regional presence.

Sales & Business Growth

  • Personally drive new customer acquisition and revenue growth through inspections, repairs, and service contracts.
  • Partner with corporate and regional teams to tailor sales strategies to the district’s unique market dynamics.
  • Lead the sales organization within the district, setting expectations and managing pipeline performance.
  • Represent Crane 1 at local industry and networking events to build credibility and brand equity.

Operational Leadership

  • Oversee all aspects of district setup and operations — from facility selection and procurement to safety, compliance, and staffing.
  • Recruit, train, and develop the district team (technicians, sales reps, and admin support) to perform at Crane 1 standards.
  • Ensure operational readiness, safety culture, and quality control from day one.
  • Implement Crane 1 processes and systems to ensure efficiency, accountability, and scalability.

Financial & Performance Management

  • Own the P&L for the district, managing budgets, pricing, and resource allocation.
  • Monitor performance metrics including revenue growth, margin, customer satisfaction, and safety KPIs.
  • Provide leadership with regular reporting, forecasts, and improvement plans.
  • Drive continuous improvement to maintain a high-performance, results-driven district culture.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Operations, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 7+ years in sales, operations, or branch management — preferably in crane, heavy equipment, or industrial services.
  • Proven track record of launching or leading a successful business unit, market, or region.
  • Strong financial and analytical acumen with the ability to manage a full P&L.
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and relationship-building skills.
  • Willingness to travel and temporarily relocate during market build phases.
