Overview
A well-regarded construction company with a strong track record in the industrial, commercial, and institutional (ICI) space is expanding into the U.S. market. Known for its integrity, responsiveness, and high-quality steel solutions on complex industrial projects, the company is seeking a Sales Manager to drive growth and build its presence across the U.S. industrial construction sector.

This is a hands-on, full-cycle sales role—you’ll prospect new business, develop client relationships, manage proposals in coordination with internal teams, and lead negotiations through close. You’ll also play a key role in shaping go-to-market strategy as the company grows in the U.S.

If you’re motivated by ownership, trusted to work independently, and energized by the chance to build something with long-term upside, this is the opportunity.

What You’ll Do

  • Own the full sales cycle—from prospecting and qualification to proposal, negotiation, and close.
  • Sell structural steel, erection, and PEMB subcontracting scopes for industrial new builds (no GC work).
  • Develop and maintain relationships with developers, EPCs, end users, engineers, and consultants.
  • Build and manage a pipeline of industrial opportunities with varying sales cycles.
  • Collaborate with estimating and marketing teams to develop compelling, competitive bids.
  • Represent the company at client meetings, trade shows, and on project sites as needed.
  • Travel up to 50%; preference for candidates based in Texas, Florida, or Nevada (but open to strong fits elsewhere).

What We’re Looking For Must-Have Experience:

  • 5–10 years in B2B sales within industrial construction, steel subcontracting, or related technical scopes.
  • Proven success managing complex sales cycles and closing new business independently.
  • Familiarity with selling into industrial sectors—manufacturing, logistics, aviation, mining, energy, or similar.
  • Ability to operate with minimal supervision and manage a remote territory effectively.

Bonus Points For:

  • Experience with steel erection, PEMBs, or fabrication services.
  • Existing network in mining, oil & gas, logistics, aviation, or manufacturing.
  • Experience launching a new sales territory or brand presence in the U.S.
  • Familiarity with design-build or turnkey industrial project delivery.

Key Skills

  • Technical understanding of construction drawings and scopes
  • Prospecting and full-cycle pipeline management
  • Relationship development with technical and executive stakeholders
  • Strategic thinking and deal negotiation
  • Excellent time and territory management

Why This Role?

  • Total ownership: Run your territory and drive your revenue without micromanagement.
  • Be a market-maker: Help define our U.S. presence—your strategy, relationships, and results will shape our growth.
  • Autonomy without red tape: You’ll have freedom to make decisions and move fast, backed by experienced internal teams.
  • Future growth path: As the U.S. team expands, there’s opportunity to step into a regional or national leadership role.
  • Respected company: We’re known for quality work and long-term partnerships across North America.
