About The Position
CHI Overhead Doors is seeking a driven, organized, and professional candidate for the position of AIA Program Manager to lead CHI Overhead Doors AIA Lunch & Learn program and serve as a primary liaison to the architecture, design, and building community. This position will play a critical role in building brand awareness and generating high-quality leads that support our national sales team and dealer network. This hybrid position requires a strong communicator who can present confidently to groups of professionals, manage logistics independently, and represent CHI Overhead Doors sectional and rolling steel door solutions in the commercial and residential space. The AIA Program Manager will be responsible for the full scope of AIA Lunch & Learn execution, including, but not limited to, scheduling and delivering accredited presentations, customizing sessions to specific verticals, and managing all related logistics such as travel, catering, and on-site setup. The position also oversees post-session follow-up, including AIA certification and lead documentation in Microsoft Dynamics CRM. This position will also lead efforts to develop and qualify architecture and design (A&D) leads, working closely with Regional Sales Managers, Commercial Sales Managers, dealers, and other CHI Overhead Doors teammates to coordinate presentations and share new opportunities. Maintaining accurate firm and contact records in Microsoft Dynamics and documenting session outcomes will be essential for success. In addition, the successful candidate will contribute cross-functionally by mentoring newer RSMs and CRMs on specific door solution applications, supporting dealer training in the field, and continuously improving the AIA presentation program and related processes. The ideal candidate must have the ability to manage frequent nationwide travel (approx. 50%) and work effectively in a remote or hybrid setting. They must be comfortable balancing presentation delivery, logistics, and relationship-building efforts in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. The successful candidate will uphold Nucor’s values such as integrity, work ethic, and personal responsibility.
