A bit about us:
Our client is a global leader in advanced hydraulic, electronic control, filtration, and fluid engineering technologies. Our products and engineered solutions support equipment manufacturers across mobile machinery, industrial systems, transportation, energy, and other demanding applications.
Our continued growth is driven by technical innovation, close customer partnerships, and the ability to help manufacturers develop safer, more efficient, and more intelligent machines.
Why join us?
We are looking for a Territory Sales Manager to take ownership of our distribution business across Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, and Missouri. You'll inherit an established group of distribution partners—but the opportunity is to do much more with them.
We want someone who likes being in the market. You'll stay close to distributor sales teams, uncover opportunities they're working on, make joint customer calls, help solve hydraulic applications, provide training, and make sure our products and capabilities are consistently in front of the people who can grow the business.
This is an opportunity to walk into a territory where increased activity can make an immediate impact. You'll have the backing of a global manufacturer, a broad technical product portfolio, significant autonomy, and an incentive plan that rewards you for turning that opportunity into growth.
