Our client is an established powertrain and engine solutions provider serving off-highway OEMs, and it is investing in a Midwest region with significant untapped potential. This is a build role. You'll define the territory strategy, open new OEM accounts, and shape how the company competes regionally. You'll sell from an unusually broad portfolio: multiple globally recognized industrial engine brands, off-highway drivetrain products, and integrated service, remanufacturing, and repower capabilities. As the region grows, the role has a clear path toward leading OEM and aftermarket resources. The is a developing region, so expect limited existing business and few warm relationships. With multi-year sales cycles, your early wins will be pipeline milestones, not revenue. Territory boundaries and the reporting structure are still being defined. That gives you real influence, but it also demands comfort with ambiguity. For a builder, this is the appeal: the ceiling is largely set by what you create.

Lead engagement from concept through quoting, prototyping, and program launch
Assess customer applications, align the right power solutions, and bring in engineering resources as needed
Build credibility with engineering, operations, and executive stakeholders
Expand existing opportunities into larger programs through structured account strategies
Coordinate with engineering, supply chain, and production so that wins become repeatable, scalable programs
Share competitive and market intelligence to shape regional strategy
SUCCESS MEASURES90 days: Target account list and territory strategy defined
6 months: Meaningful OEM pipeline built
12 months: Multiple opportunities advanced into prototype or pre-production
Long term: Production programs won and lasting OEM relationships established
REQUIREMENTS:
