If you win deals by understanding engineers, earning trust over time, and positioning capability instead of price, keep reading.

Our client is a well-established, family-owned precision contract manufacturer with a long track record of investment in equipment, quality systems, and long-term customer relationships.

The Opportunity

This role is ideal for a salesperson who:

• Enjoys hunting and building relationships from scratch

• Can navigate engineers, purchasing, and quality teams
• Wants autonomy and ownership rather than micromanagement

What Success Looks Like

• Building a healthy pipeline of qualified OEM opportunities
• Getting designed into programs rather than simply responding to RFQs
• Winning repeatable, long-term production work
• Becoming a trusted partner to customers, not just a vendor
• Growing revenue through relationships, not discounts

• Ability to understand engineering drawings and manufacturing requirements
• Strong prospecting and relationship-building skills

• Existing OEM relationships within targeted industries
• Comfort operating without heavy structure or rigid scripts

Location & Work Style

• Based in the Chicago metro area
• Expected to be on-site full time initially to learn the business
• Increased field time as ramp progresses
• This is not a remote role

Compensation

• Base salary approximately $100,000–$125,000, with bonus
