Our client is a commercial HVAC distributor with a strong technical-sales approach, operating both as a traditional distributor and an applied manufacturer rep firm. Their team partners with contractors, engineers, and building owners on product selection, applications, project support, and full life-cycle service.

• Own customer relationships from initial prospecting through account development and long‑term growth.
• Conduct regular face‑to‑face customer visits and maintain effective territory coverage.
• Understand customer applications, business needs, and challenges, and coordinate appropriate products, services, and technical resources.
• Partner with inside sales, technical resources, product specialists, manufacturers, and operations to support customers and close business.
• Develop and maintain a qualified sales pipeline, provide accurate visibility into opportunities and expected results, and communicate territory activity to sales leadership.
• Ensure timely follow‑up on quotes, projects, customer commitments, and open opportunities.
• Maintain accurate, current customer, account, and opportunity information in the company CRM.
• Monitor competitive activity, market conditions, and customer trends, and communicate relevant intelligence to sales leadership.
• Participate in customer meetings, industry events, and training, while maintaining accountability for profitable sales and gross‑profit growth.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Proven outside sales experience within HVAC distribution, commercial HVAC, or a closely related technical sales environment.
• Strong working knowledge of commercial HVAC equipment, applications, and related products.
• Demonstrated success managing and developing an assigned sales territory, including both new customer acquisition and account growth.
• Experience selling to mechanical contractors and other commercial HVAC customers.
• Ability to identify and prioritize opportunities, build relationships, negotiate effectively, and close profitable business.
• Strong communication, relationship‑management, and customer‑service skills.
• Self‑motivated and accountable, comfortable independently managing a field‑based territory within the direction of sales leadership.
• Strong organization, follow‑up, pipeline management, forecasting, and CRM discipline.
• Valid driver’s license with an acceptable driving record, and reliable transportation.
• Ability to pass background checks and drug screening.
• Established relationships within the local HVAC contractor community strongly preferred.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 5+ years of successful outside sales and territory‑management experience within commercial HVAC, HVAC distribution, or a related technical sales environment.
• Established relationships and market knowledge within commercial HVAC distribution or related channels.
• Experience with CRM and ERP systems; NetSuite experience is a plus.
• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Sales, Marketing, or a related field; equivalent relevant experience considered.
• An established contractor network or portable book of business within the assigned territory is a significant advantage.
