• Conduct job walks, support lunch-and-learns, attend trade shows, and represent Shermco at customer and industry events.
• Stay informed on customer needs, competitor activity, market trends, and emerging technologies in the electrical power services industry.

• Ability to learn technical service offerings and translate customer needs into practical solutions with support from Shermco’s engineering, operations, and field service teams.
• Experience managing customer accounts, developing new business, maintaining a sales pipeline, preparing proposals, and tracking opportunities in a CRM.
• Strong relationship-building, communication, presentation, organization, and negotiation skills.
• Self-motivated, customer-focused, and comfortable managing a defined territory with regular customer visits.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office and CRM tools.
• Willingness and ability to travel overnight up to 25% of the time for customer visits, site meetings, trade shows, and industry events.
