About the Opportunity
I’m representing a building automations contractor in the region, known for its industry leadership, exceptional company culture, and consistent recognition.
This is a high-impact leadership role managing a seasoned Service Sales team, with direct influence over strategy, growth, and customer satisfaction—all while reporting directly to the CEO in a flat, nimble organization.
What You’ll Do:
- Lead and mentor a high-performing team of 5–6 Service Sales professionals, each averaging 15 years of controls experience
- Develop and execute strategic account plans to strengthen customer relationships and drive growth
- Conduct ride-alongs and one-on-one coaching to support team development and elevate sales performance
- Collaborate with internal departments to create new or enhance existing service offerings
- Work closely with executive leadership—reporting directly to the CEO—to shape and execute sales initiatives without the bottlenecks of a large corporate hierarchy
- Support a people-first, mission-driven culture focused on innovation and long-term customer partnerships
- What We’re Looking For:
- Proven experience in service sales leadership within the building automation, HVAC controls, or energy management space
- Strong ability to coach and inspire tenured professionals
- Strategic thinker with a hands-on, collaborative leadership style
- Familiarity with BMS platforms (e.g., Alerton, Tridium, Delta Controls) is a plus
- Bay Area market knowledge preferred
- Why This Role Stands Out:
- Direct access to the CEO and executive decision-making
- No red tape—your ideas get traction fast
- Award-winning company culture focused on employee wellness and career development
- Leadership of a highly collaborative and experienced team
- Opportunity to shape the service strategy for a dominant player in the region
