About Us 

Founded in 2013, Oliva Gibbs is a client-focused law firm that specializes in serving oil and gas companies nationwide. With offices strategically located in Houston, Columbus, Lafayette, Midland, and Oklahoma City, we advise a diverse range of clients – from Fortune 500, integrated oil and gas companies to private equity backed startups and mineral rights companies.  Committed to excellence, we have ambitious 5-year goals and are actively seeking a highly motivated and capable Business Development Sales Associate to join our team in Houston, TX. This full-time position reports directly to the Director of Marketing & Sales and will play a pivotal role in revenue generation.

You will have the ability to interact with individuals out in the field and in the boardroom – adjusting your approach to each situation. You will thrive in a dynamic, small office environment in downtown Houston, where you will be able to work a hybrid schedule (one day remote per week) following the completion of a successful 90-day onboarding process.
