THE ROLE
We are seeking a driven and hands-on Regional Sales Manager to oversee and grow a multi-million dollar territory including Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma.

Work alongside distributor reps and independent reps to conduct joint sales calls, perform product demos, and provide training.
Build preference for the company’s lubrication solutions at the end-user level to drive sales through distribution.
Act as a trusted advisor and technical resource for distribution teams – ensuring they are equipped, trained, and motivated to sell effectively.
Monitor market trends, customer needs, and competitor activity to inform regional strategy.
Maintain accurate CRM records, report on KPIs, and contribute to forecasting.
QUALIFICATIONS
Proven experience in industrial B2B sales, ideally within the MRO segment or selling mechanical equipment components.
Experience working for manufacturers, or a hybrid background including both distribution and manufacturing.
Background in lubrication or related product areas is a plus: bearings, drives, gears, power transmission, filtration, abrasives, etc.
A consultative sales approach with strong technical aptitude.
Ability to work independently while managing a regional territory.
A strong hunter-mentality.
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, or related field – or equivalent professional experience.
