SMPS remote jobs and company guide

In 1973, a visionary collective of leaders from professional services firms identified a pressing need to enhance their skills, consolidate resources, and collaborate to foster business growth. This realization was the genesis of the Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS). From its inception, SMPS has been dedicated to providing its members with a competitive edge by offering unparalleled networking opportunities, comprehensive educational programs, and industry-leading research, all designed to position their firms for success in the dynamic marketplace. The organization empowers marketing and business development professionals to become strategic partners and advisors within their firms.

Over the decades, SMPS has evolved significantly. What began as a small group of 'bird doggers' – an early term for business development professionals – has transformed into a multifaceted organization supporting a wide array of roles and responsibilities crucial for company and individual growth. Today, SMPS boasts a vibrant network of over 7,400 marketing and business development professionals. These members hail from diverse sectors within the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (A/E/C) industries, including architectural, engineering, planning, interior design, construction, and specialty consulting firms across the United States and Canada. The Society and its numerous chapters, such as the New York Chapter founded in 1983 and the Columbus Chapter established in 1981, benefit from the robust support of approximately 3,700 design and building firms. This impressive roster includes 80% of the Engineering News-Record Top 500 Design Firms and Top 400 Contractors, underscoring SMPS's profound influence and reach within the A/E/C industries. As the business landscape and the built environment continue to shift, SMPS remains committed to staying at the forefront of industry trends, continuously adapting and innovating to transform how A/E/C firms conduct business and achieve success.
