In this dual-impact role, you will be the engine behind our lead generation efforts—prospecting industrial accounts that need wash water solutions.

• Manage Relationships:Build strong, collaborative partnerships with our independent dealer network to ensure they are supported and actively following up on leads.
• Maintain Pipeline Hygiene:Keep meticulous records of prospective customers, lead hand-offs, and dealer software adoption metrics within the CRM

It would be WOW if you would bring this in:

• Sales Experience:2+ years of experience in inside sales, business development, or account management (industrial or B2B water treatment experience is a huge plus).
• Tech & Software Aptitude:High tech-savviness with CRM experience and a strong comfort level acting as a "power user" to train others on software.
• Strong Communication:Exceptional verbal and written skills, comfortable pivoting from pitching a plant manager to coaching a dealer principal.
• Consultative Approach:Ability to ask smart, technical discovery questions regarding wash water applications, flow rates, and regulatory compliance.
• Educational Background:High school diploma required; a Technical or Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, or Environmental Sciences is preferred.
• Medical, Dental, and Vision plan
• Paid Holidays (11 per year)
