The Role

This is a

hunter

role for seasoned closers with real books of business and credibility on plant floors, in engineering meetings, and with procurement. You’ll own a territory, develop strategic accounts, and expand wallet share across multi-site OEMs and contractors.

What You’ll Do

- Prospect & close

multi-year, repeat-buy accounts for critical bolting and engineered fasteners.

- Navigate complex cycles with

engineering, QA, and procurement

, aligning on specs, MTRs, and delivery.

.

- Forecast, report, and collaborate with inside sales, quality, and operations to execute.

What Great Looks Like

of outside sales in

critical bolting / industrial fasteners / engineered components

with a

quota-crushing

track record.

- Fluency in specs and standards (e.g.,

ASTM A193/A194

, API 20E/20F context, MTR traceability, heat/lot control, coatings).

- You speak “plant”: can read prints, discuss materials and coatings at a whiteboard (B7/L7/A286/718, PTFE/Xylan, etc.).

- A portable network with OEMs, EPCs, fabricators, and MROs in your region.

- Languages:

English required;

Spanish or Portuguese

is a strong plus for LATAM.
