Responsibilities

• Drive sales growth within a defined geographic region by managing and expanding relationships with OEMs, engineers, purchasing teams, and end users
• Serve as the primary point of contact for project-based and contract-based business, including wayside cable systems, rail-specific cable assemblies, and low-voltage connectivity products
• Apply our sales process to identify new opportunities and close business within assigned accounts
• Lead technical discussions on product specs such as compression standards, noise ratio, and environmental requirements
• Present tailored solutions and proposals based on unique rail and transit needs
• Support bid activities and coordinate public procurement submissions
• Work closely with our sourcing, engineering, and operations teams to deliver solutions aligned with customer and business objectives
• Engage with key strategic vendor partners to support growth within rail and transit verticals

• Provide regular account updates and territory reports to sales leadership
• Represent GCG at trade shows, industry events, and client site visits
• Foster trusted partnerships by acting as a technical advisor and solution provider
• Maintain high responsiveness and customer service standards throughout the sales cycle

Benefits

• Competitive base salary of $115,000 to $130,000 per year commensurate with level of industry and outside sales experience; commissions-based incentive plan
• Comprehensive Health Coverage: Multiple medical plan options (CDHP and PPO) to get you the coverage you need
• Robust Financial Security: Company-paid life and disability insurance, 401(k) with company match, plus options for supplemental critical illness, accident, and hospital indemnity plans
