Leader, Regional Sales

Leader - Regional Sales

About TireHub:

At TireHub we move more than tires – we move businesses forward, support communities, and help keep America rolling.  And behind it all?  Our people.  We call them Hubbers – because they’re at the center of everything we do.  From behind the wheel to the warehouse floor, from customer calls to corporate strategy, every Hubber plays a role in something bigger than themselves.  And we show up every day ready to say yes – to challenges, to each other, and to getting it done right.

Position Summary: 

The Regional Sales Leader is a business leader with functional responsibility who builds, develops, and leads an assigned regional market growth, program dealer, general sales, and car dealer Hubbers by executing strategic plans to achieve volume, margin, and budget goals across assigned brands and channels. In an evolved operating model, the Regional Sales Leader (RSL) serves as a co-leader of the region alongside the Regional Operations Leader (ROL), sharing joint accountability for the full regional P&L — encompassing both sales revenue performance and optimized operational results. While the RSL’s primary domain remains driving sales growth and managing customer relationships, they are equally invested in the operational health of the region’s TireHub Logistics Centers (TLCs), collaborating with the ROL to make decisions that optimize total regional performance. This shared accountability creates individual functional excellence and collective regional business outcomes. Success in this role requires a strong sales background, sound judgment, and the ability to lead through influence in a dynamic, customer-focused environment.

This position reports to the Divisional Director of Sales.
