Job Description

Be part of something bigger

Gallagher Asphalt is growing, and we’re looking for a high-energy, highly accountable, hungry leader to own and scale our EZ Street product line. If you thrive on the chase, love building relationships face-to-face, and want to win market share with creativity and drive, this role is built for you!

The Role

The EZ Street Product Manager is the business manager for our EZ Street product line; responsible for sales growth, financial performance, inventory planning, and quality coordination. You’ll build the pipeline, grow key accounts, develop new channels, and execute with discipline, while working cross-functionally with Sales, Plants, Quality Control (QC), and Accounting to deliver sustained profitability.

Why This Role is Different

EZ Street is a high-performance, ready-to-use asphalt product with huge opportunity, and this role gives you the runway to build a territory, grow a brand, and make a measurable impact fast.

What You’ll Do

Own Sales Growth & Market Expansion

  • Build and execute a sales plan to grow volume and market share
  • Be on the road meeting customers: municipalities, utilities, contractors, distributors, retailers, and private clients
  • Hunt new business through proactive outreach (yes—cold calling and door opening)
  • Represent EZ Street at conferences, trade shows, and customer events
  • Lead bid activity: identify opportunities, prepare submissions, and align internally on pricing, supply, and logistics
  • Keep pipeline, activities, and forecasting current and accurate in the CRM

Drive Profitability & Performance

  • Track and report KPIs (volume, revenue, margin, inventory turns)
  • Partner on pricing strategy with a profitability-first mindset
  • Coordinate with Accounting to ensure clean execution and timely invoicing

Manage Inventory & Coordinate Supply

  • Forecast demand and manage finished goods inventory across production/distribution points
  • Coordinate production planning to prevent stockouts or excess inventory
  • Partner with QC and plant teams to ensure consistent product performance

Who You Are

  • You’re a hunter: self-starting, goal-driven, and energized by winning new business
  • You take ownership; revenue, margin, execution, and reputation matter to you
  • You’re organized, disciplined, and love using tools/tech to stay on top of priorities
  • You’re creative and resourceful - always looking for smarter ways to grow the market
  • You communicate clearly and follow through every time

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience (Sales, Marketing, Business, Entrepreneurship, or related preferred)
  • Valid driver’s license
  • Regular overnight travel within the territory (~3 hours from Chicagoland); occasional evenings/weekends based on customer needs
  • Comfortable with CRM discipline, forecasting, margin analysis, and bid/spec work
  • Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office and comfort learning new systems

If you’re ready to own results, build something big, and win with Gallagher Asphalt, apply today!
