We’re looking for someone with a proven track record in fire alarm or life safety project sales, who thrives on building long-term customer relationships while also managing the technical and operational details that set projects up for success.

Requirements

- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills with both customers and internal teams
- Solid organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple projects in a fast-paced environment

- Collaborate with project managers, engineers, designers, and field technicians to ensure a seamless handoff from sale to execution
- Consistently meet or exceed sales targets and contribute to regional growth
Benefits
