Job Description

Location: Oakdale, PA area

Industry: Industrial Equipment / Engineered Systems
Compensation: Competitive base salary + uncapped commission (70-75k BASE)

Our client is a well-established, engineering-driven industrial solutions provider that has been serving manufacturers and facilities across Western Pennsylvania and surrounding states for over four decades. Now part of a larger, national organization, they continue to operate with the same local leadership and long-standing customer relationships — offering the best of both worlds: the stability and resources of a national group with the close-knit, team-oriented culture of a regional firm.

The Opportunity:

We’re seeking a driven Outside Sales Representative to grow business across Western PA and neighboring territories. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on consultative selling and enjoys combining technical understanding with relationship-building.

You’ll work directly with plant engineers, maintenance managers, and facility leaders to identify opportunities for efficiency improvements, system upgrades, and new installations — offering solutions that can deliver measurable energy and cost savings.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop and manage a territory sales plan focused on new business development and existing account growth.
Conduct customer site visits to assess equipment and system needs.
Present engineered solutions that improve system performance and reduce energy costs.
Partner with inside sales, engineering, and service teams to ensure seamless project execution.
Prepare proposals, quotes, and ROI analyses for clients.
Stay current on industry products, technology trends, and competitive landscape.

What Makes This Role Stand Out:

Established Client Base & Growth Territory: You’ll inherit strong customer relationships while expanding into new markets.
Technical Depth: Sell engineered, high-impact solutions — not just products — that improve plant performance and sustainability.
Company Stability: Backed by a national parent company while maintaining a local, team-oriented culture.
Long-Term Opportunity: Many employees have built decade-plus careers here, reflecting the company’s commitment to professional development and retention.
Meaningful Work: Help clients reduce energy costs and optimize performance — your results have visible, measurable impact.

Qualifications:

3+ years of outside sales experience in industrial, mechanical, or technical products/services.
Background in compressed air systems, HVAC, or mechanical equipment preferred but not required.
Strong mechanical aptitude and consultative sales approach.
Excellent communication and presentation skills.
Self-motivated with ability to manage time and territory effectively.
Valid driver’s license and willingness to travel within the assigned region.
