Specific eligibility and coverage details will be provided during the hiring process** Job Summary: Piper Fire Protection's Clearwater, FL Branch is seeking an experienced sales leader to serve as Sales Manager, accountable for the strategy, performance, and growth of the branch's sales organization across both service/deficiency sales and construction/project sales. This is a player-coach role: in addition to leading a team of sales professionals, the Sales Manager will carry an individual quota and actively develop their own book of business across Piper's fire alarm and fire sprinkler offerings - including new system installation, service, and inspection and testing agreements. The role is responsible for driving revenue performance across both the team and the manager's individual production, and for building strong customer and market relationships. The Sales Manager oversees two complementary revenue streams (recurring service and deficiency sales, and construction/project sales) and is expected to coach, forecast, and personally sell across both. This is not a passive or administrative leadership role. Success requires visible, hands-on coaching in the field, personal selling activity, active pipeline management, and a relentless focus on team development and revenue growth. The Sales Manager will also represent Piper in the local construction community (including active participation in Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) and similar industry organizations) to build relationships with general contractors, developers, and end users in the Clearwater market. You will work closely with senior leadership to set territory strategy, refine sales processes, and ensure consistent execution across the team. Essential Duties and Responsibilities: Recruit, onboard, and develop a high-performing sales team aligned with company growth objectives. Coach and develop the team through one-on-ones, ride-alongs, and in-the-field deal support, driving both skill development and deal progression. Set clear performance expectations, track KPIs, and manage performance improvement plans as needed. Foster a team culture centered on integrity, customer focus, and continuous improvement. Carry an individual sales quota, sourcing and closing fire alarm and fire sprinkler opportunities (including new system installations, service, and inspection and testing agreements) alongside the team. Own the team's revenue targets, gross margin performance, forecast accuracy, and pipeline health across the assigned territory and market segments. Develop and execute territory sales strategies that maximize penetration of target markets and customer segments across both service/deficiency and construction/project channels, balancing recurring revenue growth with new project pursuits. Personally cultivate relationships with key general contractors, developers, property managers, and end users (including through active membership in Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) and similar trade associations) to position Piper as the preferred fire protection partner in the Clearwater market. Support team members on complex deals, large accounts, and high-value negotiations. Lead weekly pipeline reviews and enforce CRM disci
