Job Details

The Sales Operations Manager will help senior sales leadership turn growth strategy into execution. This person will bring structure, reporting, follow-up, CRM discipline, market research, and project coordination to a national sales organization.

This is a strong fit for someone who understands sales process, enjoys digging into data, and can work across sales, product, marketing, and business systems teams to improve visibility, accountability, and decision-making.

What You’ll Do
  • Help organize and drive sales growth initiatives from concept through execution.
  • Build visibility around sales pipeline, key accounts, target markets, and major opportunities.
  • Improve CRM reporting, data quality, dashboards, and follow-up processes.
  • Create practical reports that help sales leadership understand what is working, what is stalled, and where to focus.
  • Research customers, competitors, markets, applications, and technical trends to support growth planning.
  • Support market development efforts across industrial, mobile equipment, OEM, distributor, and engineered product channels.
  • Partner with product teams to track growth initiatives, cross-selling opportunities, and product-line performance.
  • Translate sales and market data into clear recommendations, business cases, and leadership updates.
  • Help standardize sales processes, reporting templates, playbooks, and training materials.
  • Support customer engagement plans, distributor programs, lead follow-up, and targeted account strategies.
  • Use CRM, spreadsheets, dashboards, AI tools, and reporting platforms to make sales information easier to access and act on.
  • Assist with sales presentations, internal updates, customer-facing materials, and executive reporting.

What We’re Looking For
  • Experience in sales operations, commercial operations, CRM management, sales enablement, business development, market development, program management, or sales analytics.
  • Background supporting a technical B2B sales organization, ideally within manufacturing, industrial products, engineered components, distribution, OEM sales, automation, or mobile equipment.
  • Comfortable working with CRM systems and improving pipeline visibility, reporting accuracy, and sales follow-up.
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to turn scattered information into clear reports, dashboards, and action plans.
  • Ability to manage multiple initiatives, keep stakeholders aligned, and follow up without needing constant direction.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to work with executives, regional sales leaders, product teams, marketing, and technical stakeholders.
  • Experience with dashboards, spreadsheets, presentations, CRM reporting, sales KPIs, market research, and competitor tracking.
  • Exposure to hydraulics, fluid power, motion control, filtration, cooling systems, sensors, electronics, or other engineered products is helpful.
