Are you a natural relationship builder with strong customer instincts? Do you enjoy stepping onto a production floor to solve problems just as much as you enjoy strategizing account growth? Do you love being "the face" to major OEMs and prefer a role that gets you out in the field rather than behind a desk? If so, this is the perfect opportunity to join our client, a primary equipment supplier to the North American bus industry.

The Regional Account Manager will support key OEM and fleet customers across Northern California and surrounding areas. This highly visible role blends account management, light technical/mechanical support, project coordination, field training, and regional sales growth.

You will serve as the primary point of contact for one of the region’s largest bus/vehicle manufacturers while also supporting additional transit agencies, fleets, and operators across Northern California and parts of the Central Valley.

This role is ideal for someone who loves building customer relationships, enjoys being hands‑on in production environments, and is comfortable balancing sales responsibilities with technical problem-solving.

What You'll Be Doing

Account Management & Customer Support

• Serve as the dedicated Account Manager for a major OEM in the Bay Area, visiting the customer 2–3 times per week to ensure smooth production, system performance, and issue resolution.
• Maintain strong customer relationships, identify pain points, and proactively address issues before they escalate.
• Coordinate closely with internal engineering and operations teams to troubleshoot production line challenges and facilitate solutions.
• Support multiple fleet/end‑user accounts throughout Northern California, conducting site visits, check-ins, and relationship-building.

Technical/Mechanical Support

• Provide on-site support during customer production processes — identifying mechanical issues, gathering data, and collaborating with engineering for solutions.
• Demonstrate mechanical aptitude and curiosity; able to understand technical product functions and communicate them clearly to customers.
• Perform hands-on review of customer installations and assist with resolving equipment, configuration, or application questions.

Training & Education

• Conduct paid technical training sessions for customer maintenance teams and technicians.
• Deliver clear instructions on product usage, safety, troubleshooting, and maintenance best practices.
• Ensure training materials and documentation are consistently updated and aligned with customer needs.

Regional Growth & Field Sales

• Manage and grow existing accounts while identifying new opportunities within assigned territory.
• Conduct cold visits/check-ins with regional customers to assess needs, gather feedback, and promote solutions.
• Support bid/specification efforts to ensure products are accurately represented in proposals and future orders.
• Provide timely and accurate forecasting, market feedback, and competitive insights.

Travel Expectations

• Approximately 80% travel, primarily within Northern California.
• Occasional travel to national manufacturing sites, training centers, and customer locations for onboarding and continued development.
• Expect an immersive 60-day onboarding program involving shadowing and training with team members across multiple regions.

What Experience You Bring

Required

• 5+ years of experience combining sales, account management, project coordination, and/or technical customer support.
• Strong customer-facing skills with the ability to manage expectations, resolve conflicts professionally, and build trust.
• Demonstrated mechanical aptitude, whether through previous work experience, hands-on roles, or personal/hobbyist experience.
• Ability to work independently from a home office while managing a travel-heavy schedule.
• Strong proficiency with Microsoft Office and experience using CRM tools.
• Residency in Northern California, with daily travel within the Bay Area feasible.

Preferred

• Experience supporting OEMs or large industrial/manufacturing accounts.
• Background in transportation, heavy equipment, mechanical systems, mobility, or related technical industries.
• Experience conducting customer training or technical demonstrations.
• Strong organizational skills with proven ability to prioritize across multiple customers and ongoing projects.

What's Offered

• Company vehicle and credit card for travel.
• Yearly bonus eligibility.
• Comprehensive benefits package.
