Marabek is a US based international management advisory firm specializing in manufacturing and related financial operations.

This is a contract-basis, COMMISSION-ONLY POSITION. Highly effective Partner typically earn more than $300,000+ annually, but there is no upside limit and no ceiling on your net earnings, which depend, to a large extent, on your own efforts and results. However, selling a business is an extended process with a very long sales cycle, so a new Partner should be prepared to go an average of 6 months before collecting their first check. We have developed a lucrative comp plan based on milestones, fees and revenue-based incentives.

This opportunity provides the platform to work in a fast changing advisory business in a post-pandemic world. The team in Minneapolis expects rapid growth across US and offers a early participation in the firm’s development. If you think you are ready to be a part of a growing organization and can work independently to someday define your future, this could be your last “job”. What we want is a business development partner with a strong desire to be successful and can apply dedicated effort. We are entrepreneurially spirited and are looking for like-minded future leaders to help grow Marabek globally.
