Key Account Manager (Core Business Segment)

Southco, Inc.

Job Description

We’re Hiring: Key Account Manager I at Southco

\n

Look around you. The latch on a server rack, the hinge on medical equipment, the lock on a boat hatch: there’s a good chance Southco engineered it.

\n

For over 75 years, Southco has been a global leader in engineered access hardware, designing the locks, latches, fasteners, hinges, and handles that people touch every day across transportation, data centers, medical, industrial, and marine markets. We believe first impressions matter, and we help the world’s leading brands get their “touch points” right.

\n

Now we’re looking for a Key Account Manager I to help grow some of our most important customer relationships.

\n

What you’ll do:

\n
    \n
  • Meet with 15–20 contacts per week at your key accounts, building relationships with senior-level decision makers and uncovering new business
  • \n
  • Manage your pipeline in Salesforce, planning meetings, calls, quotes, and samples, and keeping forecasts current
  • \n
  • Deliver monthly updates on field activity and critical customer programs
  • \n
  • Build quarterly customer and gap analysis presentations, plus an annual growth plan for your accounts
  • \n
\n

What you bring:

\n
    \n
  • A BSME, BS or equivalent technical sales experience.
  • \n
  • Ability to travel up to 40%
  • \n
  • 1–3 years of outside sales experience and an understanding of top- and bottom-line business impact
  • \n
  • Proven experience selling technical, engineered physical products in partnership with engineering teams to deliver customized customer solutions
  • \n
  • Comfort with Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Salesforce (or the drive to master them)
  • \n
  • Strong sales, communication, presentation, and listening skills
  • \n
\n

Why Southco?

\n

- Large and Local existing customer base with ample growth opportunities

\n

-Great base and uncapped commission

\n

--Company car (Ford Explorer) plus a gas & repair card

\n

- We offer careers, not just jobs

\n

- 84% employee retention rate

\n

- Stable, growing, family- and employee-owned company

\n

- Stellar benefits: bonus potential, Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), 401(k) matching, strong health insurance, PTO, and additional health & wellness programs

\n

- 1,000+ patents across 150+ categories

\n

--14 manufacturing sites, with 2 in USA.

\n

--3000 employees and over 125 years in business
