SUMMARY
Our client is an established powertrain and engine solutions provider serving off-highway OEMs, and it is investing in a Midwest region with significant untapped potential. This is a build role. You'll define the territory strategy, open new OEM accounts, and shape how the company competes regionally. You'll sell from an unusually broad portfolio: multiple globally recognized industrial engine brands, off-highway drivetrain products, and integrated service, remanufacturing, and repower capabilities. As the region grows, the role has a clear path toward leading OEM and aftermarket resources.
The is a developing region, so expect limited existing business and few warm relationships. With multi-year sales cycles, your early wins will be pipeline milestones, not revenue. Territory boundaries and the reporting structure are still being defined. That gives you real influence, but it also demands comfort with ambiguity. For a builder, this is the appeal: the ceiling is largely set by what you create.
RESPONSIBILITIES
You'll own the full OEM sales cycle, from first conversation through production launch. This is a hunter role, not account maintenance. Success means winning new programs and building long-term partnerships.
