What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of industrial technical sales experience.
• Experience selling hydraulic filtration, fluid power, hydraulic components or related industrial products.
• Strong MRO-focused hydraulics sales experience with a proven track record of working through industrial distributors and driving aftermarket growth.
• Strong understanding of hydraulic systems and hydraulic circuits.
• Hunter mentality with a proven record of developing new business.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Willingness to travel approximately 50%.
