Sales Director

Tri-Starr Talent
Houston, TX Full Time
POSTED ON 1/3/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 2/1/2026

Are you a hunter with a chemist’s mindset? We are looking for a powerhouse Technical Sales Director to spearhead our growth in the Industrial sector. This isn’t just a desk job; it’s a high-impact role for a leader who can move seamlessly from the boardroom to the field—closing major contracts one day and performing critical water analysis the next.

If you have the technical savvy to master chemical applications and the grit to build a market from the ground up, we want to talk.

The Mission

  • Drive growth and own the full sales lifecycle—from identifying industrial leads to negotiating high-value contracts.
  • Be the technical authority, acting as a true "Sales Engineer." You don’t just talk about solutions; you collect samples, run on-site tests, and diagnose chemical reactions to provide ironclad technical recommendations.
  • Manage and expand our distribution channels while acting as a trusted advisor to key industrial decision-makers.
  • Stay ahead of market trends and competitors, representing the brand at major industry events and turning technical data into winning business strategies.
  • Work hand-in-hand with our engineering and operations teams to ensure the solutions you sell are executed to perfection.

What You Bring

  • A Degree in Engineering, Chemistry, or a related technical field.
  • 3 years of proven success in industrial water treatment sales.
  • Deep knowledge of chemical applications and a "field-ready" attitude. You must be comfortable with on-site sampling and technical troubleshooting.
  • Exceptional leadership, sharp negotiation skills, and a hunger to exceed KPIs.
  • Ready to travel (approx. 33%) to meet clients where they are.

Why Join Us?

We are a growing team where your technical expertise directly impacts the bottom line. You’ll have the autonomy to build your territory and the support of an organization that values innovation and precision

Salary : $100,000 - $130,000
