    About Griffin Fluid Management

    Griffin Fluid Management is a leader in providing temporary fluid management solutions.  We combine world-class engineering, industry expertise, and a national fleet of specialty equipment to solve our customers’ toughest fluid management challenges.  Our projects range from engineered dewatering projects, water treatment solutions, turnkey sewer bypass, pipeline hydrotests to simple general pumping applications.  We recognize that our past and future success heavily relies on the efforts of our empowered, knowledgeable, experienced, dedicated, and valued employees. Since 1934, we have been ensuring that our customers’ projects flow smoothly.     

    Job Summary:

    As a Sales Development Associate with Griffin Fluid Management, you will be part of a structured development program designed to prepare you for a long-term career in sales. You’ll begin by learning our business from the inside—job shadowing employees from sales to service, supporting customers, learning equipment applications, and building the foundation to grow into a high-performing sales role.

    This is not a sit-behind-a-desk role. You’ll be expected to roll up your sleeves, get your boots muddy, and fully understand the gear. From day one, you’ll shadow technicians, job superintendents, and operations staff to learn the full lifecycle of our equipment and services. You’ll get your hands dirty – and that’s exactly the point.

    If you’re driven, coachable, and ready to solve real-world problems for construction, industrial, and municipal clients, we’ll give you the tools and training to succeed.

    Responsibilities:

    ·        Provide exceptional customer service by phone, email, and in person

    ·        Process rental quotes, contracts, and sales orders in a timely, accurate manner

    ·        Assist outside sales reps in identifying and closing rental opportunities

    ·        Proactively follow up on leads, quotes, and customer inquiries

    ·        Support customer accounts and jobsite coordination with dispatch and operations teams

    ·        Collaborate with the service team to ensure equipment readiness and customer satisfaction

    ·        Maintain accurate records in CRM and rental software systems

    ·        Participate in ongoing product, safety, and sales training

    Qualifications:

    ·        Bachelor’s degree in business, geology, engineering, or a related field of study preferred.

    ·        4 Years or more of Military Service in lieu of a Bachelor’s degree.

    ·        Strong mechanical aptitude and interest in learning pump system applications

    ·        Proficiency with MS Office Suite and basic CRM systems

    ·        Valid driver’s license with acceptable driving record

    Personal Attributes

    ·        A team player and a true partner and collaborator to our sales organization. 

    ·        Proactive self‐starter who is action-oriented; self‐motivated with a strong aptitude and desire to learn.

    ·        Excellent communication and customer service skills

    ·        Ability to operate effectively and professionally under pressure.

    ·        Strong creative thinking and problem‐solving skills.

    What We Offer:

    • Competitive base salary
    • Comprehensive health benefit plan
    • Paid time off, holidays, and tuition reimbursement
    • Matching 401(k) retirement savings plan
    • Company-sponsored training and career path development
