Sprinkler Sales Executive
About The Position
Encore Fire Protection is seeking a Fire Protection Systems Estimator who is curious, confident, and has a natural ability to connect with people. This role involves guiding customers through the estimating and proposal process for fire alarm, fire sprinkler, special hazards, or integrated life safety systems. Prior fire protection experience is not required, but a willingness to learn, commitment to the work, and ability to drive toward results are essential. The position is ideal for someone competitive, detail-oriented, and resilient. It is a hybrid role, splitting time between field assessments and office-based estimating, requiring close collaboration with internal teams to build accurate proposals and communicate effectively with customers. While there is a technical learning curve, the growth opportunity is substantial.
