Regional Manager, Business Development - Southern US

At DALS Lighting, innovation is at the heart of everything we do. As one of North America's leading manufacturers of residential and light commercial LED lighting solutions, we're transforming spaces through cutting-edge technology, exceptional design, and outstanding customer experiences.

Our products are featured in thousands of lighting showrooms, electrical distributors, retail locations, and major construction projects across North America.
