Territory Sales Manager
About the role
Learn the Products First, you’ll need to learn all about Victaulic’s products and the many ways that we can provide solutions for our customers and help them get their projects done on time and within budget. You’ll be happy to know, we have an excellent training program!
Know the Industry In sales training, we’ll teach you not only about grooved mechanical pipe joining methods, but also about the competitive methods of joining pipe, such as welding and flanging. With this knowledge, you can feel confident that you’ll be able to overcome any objections you may face in the field from customers who are used to the more traditional ways of joining pipe.
You’ll also need to understand construction cycles, find and follow major construction, expansion or retrofit projects, and keep current with market trends and competitor activity. You’ll be expected to integrate into local trade organizations and professional associations while striving to become part of the fabric of the industry within your territory.
Qualifications
You’ll work with your Regional Sales Manager to develop a business plan, including opportunity mapping, sales goals, product promotion plans, and strategies to maximize your sales potential. You’ll be responsible for executing all phases of project pursuit and project management to secure a purchase order – from project inception through design, specifications, drawings, bidding phase, job site training and support, final commissioning and after-sale follow up.
You’ll need to gain complete information for all quotation requisitions including application, specification, pricing and timing requirements, and lead the inside sales team, engineering and other support staff to ensure good teamwork to meet customer requirements.
Skills
Developing and nurturing long standing relationships is also beneficial. Possessing a competitive nature and showing both flexibility and resiliency will assist you in growing business in your territory year over year. Because our territory managers work remote with minimal supervision, you should be self-motivated and self-driven to achieve success.
