About the Role
SwimOutlet is looking for a driven, relationship-focused Facility Sales Specialist to help grow our business with aquatic facilities and organizations. In this role you’ll work with municipal and community pools, YMCAs, colleges and universities, K-12 schools, swim clubs, fitness centers, resorts, and other aquatic facilities. You’ll serve as their trusted partner for facility, deck and pool gear.
You’ll be responsible for supporting the sales cycle: prospecting new facilities, supporting existing relationships, understanding each facility’s operational and seasonal needs, and delivering solutions that keep their programs equipped year-round. Reporting to the VP of Sales and Service, you’ll be a key contributor to the growth of SwimOutlet’s facility and B2B business.
What You’ll Do
- Support and grow facility sales, driving revenue against monthly, quarterly, and annual targets.
- Prospect and qualify new facility opportunities through outbound outreach, referrals, industry events, and inbound leads.
- Build long-term relationships with aquatics directors, facility managers, coaches, purchasing agents, and other decision-makers.
- Consult with facilities to understand their programming, headcount, seasonal cycles, and budgets, then recommend the right product mix.
- Prepare quotes, proposals, and bulk/team orders; manage pricing within approved guidelines.
- Coordinate with customer service, operations, and fulfillment to ensure accurate, on-time delivery and a smooth account experience.
- Log sales activity and customer interactions in the CRM, keeping records current.
- Handle contract renewals, reorders, and account issues, resolving problems quickly to protect and grow the relationship.
- Stay current on product lines, new arrivals, and category trends to advise customers credibly.
- Partner with marketing and leadership on facility-focused promotions and initiatives.
- Represent SwimOutlet at trade shows, aquatic conferences, and regional events as needed.
Who you are
- Experience selling to aquatic facilities, athletic departments, schools, or in sporting goods / team dealer channels.
- Familiarity with the aquatics, swim, or fitness industry (personal involvement in swimming a plus).
- Experience with team/bulk ordering, custom apparel, or facility supply programs.
- Willingness to travel within territory and attend industry events.
- 2+ years of B2B sales, account management, or inside/outside sales experience, ideally with a track record of hitting quota.
- Strong relationship-building, consultative selling, and negotiation skills.
- Excellent written and verbal communication; comfortable presenting to and following up with decision-makers.
- Organized and self-directed, able to prioritize across many facility leads and requests.
- Proficiency with CRM tools (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot) and standard sales/productivity software.
- Comfort working toward revenue targets in a metrics-driven environment.
Success Looks Like
- Consistently meeting or exceeding sales and margin targets.
- A growing base of active, satisfied facility accounts with strong retention and reorder rates.
- Timely data entry and clear communication across active opportunities.
- Facilities who view SwimOutlet as their go-to partner for aquatic and team needs.
