- Distributor & Field Support: Serve as the primary inside contact for distributor partners. Provide pre-call preparation and seamless commercial backup for the outside sales team while they are traveling.
- Data Integrity: Maintain flawless, current records in the CRM for all open quotes, proposals, and customer interactions to ensure reliable pipeline forecasting.
Quote turnaround times within defined SLAs.
High order entry accuracy and proposal-to-order conversion rates.

- Technical Skills: Proven ability to read and interpret technical documentation, including spec sheets, data sheets, and basic P&IDs.
- System Proficiency: Strong experience building quotes within ERP/order management software and managing sales pipelines within a CRM platform.
- Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; highly responsive with a natural sense of urgency.
Preferred:
- Familiarity with tank gauging, industrial instrumentation, process equipment, or inventory management software.
- Experience supporting distributor networks and channel partner relationships.
