  • Conduct on-site evaluations, system audits, and application assessments to recommend optimized compressed air solutions
  • Prepare and deliver technical proposals, pricing, and customer presentations that clearly communicate value and ROI

Customer Relationship Management

  • Build and maintain strong relationships with end users, OEMs, contractors, distributors, and engineering firms
  • Act as a trusted technical advisor on compressed air system performance, reliability, and energy efficiency
  • Manage full sales cycle activity from lead generation through closing and ongoing account support

Internal Collaboration

  • Strong technical understanding of compressed air systems, air treatment, and industrial equipment applications
  • Demonstrated success in meeting or exceeding sales targets in a B2B environment
  • Strong communication, presentation, and negotiation skills
  • Ability to travel regularly within assigned territory
  • Experience with compressed air OEMs such as Kaeser, Atlas Copco, Ingersoll Rand, or Sullair is preferred

Why The Hope Group?

  • Market leader in fluid power and motion control
