Division Manager

American Fence Company
Johnston, IA Full Time
POSTED ON 8/8/2025 CLOSED ON 3/29/2026

What are the responsibilities and job description for the Division Manager position at American Fence Company?

The high security industry is fast-moving and involves complicated, highly valued equipment. But the specialized needs of the industry have outgrown the capacity of the average fence contractor. The solution? Patriot Perimeter Security.

 

At Patriot Perimeter Security, we established a company-wide division of subject matter experts, experienced installers and seasoned estimators to focus exclusively on high security projects.  We teamed with the nation’s leading manufacturers to become recognized distributors, and we earned certifications in manufacturer-sponsored product installation.  Patriot Perimeter Security also developed a design to build to maintain (DBM) process, which includes design assistance, vehicle vector analysis, BIM modeling, as-built documentation, custom fabrication, systems commissioning, training, and systems management.

 

Behind this high powered and fast-growing division is the tip of spear leader.  We are looking for that individual with the business acumen to team with executive leadership, and the resourcefulness to work independently in growing a new division by experiencing each facet.  Be prepared to estimate, manage and lead large sophisticated high security projects, while growing this division through the buildup of new sales staff, project managers and superintendents.   This position will require you to travel to high valued sites throughout the United States, with a home base at our Des Moines, IA area branch. The salary range for this position is between $100,000 and $125,000 annually with bonus potential based on measurable sales and performance goals.

 

Responsibilities

  • Become an industry subject matter expert through education and on-site learning.
  • Estimate complicated and high value security projects with a mix of materials and installations.
  • Manage projects from conception to completion.
  • Prepare and deliver presentations on the value and necessity of our company.
  • Build a team of industry professionals in sales, project management and supervision.
  • Pinpoint leads through a wide range of investigative project promotion sources.
  • Cultivate project leads from introduction through bidding – potentially a yearslong process.
  • Team with our wider staff of corporate professionals from purchasing, accounting and human resources.

Salary : $100,000 - $125,000
