  • Provide feedback to product development and leadership on emerging needs such as insulation performance, air/vapor barriers, and sustainability.

  • Represent the company at industry events and trade associations related to cold storage and food logistics.

Sales Execution

  • Drive revenue growth through specification wins and project conversions within strategic accounts.

  • Track project pipelines from concept through construction and commissioning.

  • Coordinate with regional sales teams and approved contractors to ensure successful project execution.

Internal Collaboration

  • Partner with marketing, product management, and technical services to develop targeted messaging for cold storage applications.

  • Support training initiatives for internal teams and external partners on roofing solutions specific to temperature-controlled facilities.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Experience

  • 5-10+ years of experience in commercial roofing, building envelope, or construction materials.

  • Proven track record in strategic account management or specification sales.

  • Experience with cold storage, refrigerated facilities, or food/pharma logistics strongly preferred.

Skills & Competencies

  • Strong understanding of roofing systems with emphasis on insulation, vapor barriers, and condensation control.

  • Technical aptitude with the ability to influence design and specification decisions.

  • Excellent relationship-building and executive communication skills.

  • Strategic thinker with strong business acumen and long-cycle sales management capability.

  • Ability to navigate complex projects involving multiple stakeholders and technical requirements.

Education

  • Bachelor's degree in business, Engineering, Construction Management, or related field preferred.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

  • Specification wins within target cold storage accounts

  • Revenue growth from strategic accounts

  • Pipeline development and conversion rates

  • Employee Stock Purchase Plan

  • Medical, Dental, Disability and Life Insurance

  • Holistic Health & Well-being programs
