- Manage the full commercial sales lifecycle from opportunity identification and job walks to quote preparation, technical presentations, commercial closing, and after-sale field support.
- Coordinate with internal application engineering, Quick Response Center (QRC) repair facilities, and customer service teams to deliver fast turnaround proposals and reliable project execution.
- Maintain high visibility across the territory through regular on-site plant visits across Montana, Northern Wyoming, and Western North Dakota.
Required Qualifications

- Demonstrated success navigating industrial distribution channels, direct end-user maintenance/reliability sales, or a hybrid sales model.
- Must currently reside in or be willing to relocate to Billings, MT or Casper, WY, with the ability to manage regional territory travel.
- Valid driver’s license with an acceptable driving record.
- Legally authorized to work in the United States without company sponsorship.
Preferred Qualifications
- Working knowledge of API 682 standard piping plans, mechanical seal failure analysis, and cartridge seal conversions.
- Strong familiarization with API 610, ASME/ANSI B73.1, or heavy-duty industrial slurry/process pumps.
