      • Conduct site visits and coordinate with operations to ensure projects are scheduled, resourced, and executed to customer expectations.
      • Lead, coach, and support a seasoned team of sales representatives, providing day-to-day guidance, pricing direction, and accountability.

      • Conduct regular check-ins with each salesperson to review KPIs, pipeline status, and obstacles.
      • Ensure consistent use of company processes, bid logs, estimating tools, and pricing standards.
      • Assist with onboarding and training of new sales team members.
      • Collaborate with location leadership to set team goals and sales strategy.
