Fire Protection Sales Professional

What if you could combine technical expertise, relationship building, and project ownership into one rewarding career?

I'm working with a growing fire protection organization looking for a Fire Protection Sales Professional near Fort Wayne IN. This isn't a transaction-focused sales role. It's an opportunity to become a trusted advisor, helping customers solve complex fire protection challenges while guiding projects from concept to completion.

If you enjoy walking a jobsite, reviewing plans, collaborating with contractors, and developing solutions that genuinely make a difference, this could be a great fit.

What You'll Be Doing

✅ Building relationships with owners, developers, and general contractors

✅ Identifying customer needs and creating customized fire protection solutions

✅ Reviewing drawings, specifications, and project schedules

✅ Preparing takeoffs, estimates, and proposals

✅ Supporting design-build projects through hazard analysis and value engineering

✅ Managing a strong pipeline of opportunities from bid to close

✅ Working alongside project teams to ensure successful execution after the sale

What They're Looking For

• 2+ years of fire sprinkler sales or fire protection design experience
• NICET Water-Based Layout certification preferred
• Experience with commercial, industrial, or residential projects
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• Self-motivated, organized, and comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously

Why People Like This Opportunity

• Strong compensation package
• 401(k) with company match
• Profit-sharing program
• Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life, and disability benefits
• PTO
• A collaborative team environment where technical expertise is valued
• The ability to own projects from initial conversation through successful completion

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to move beyond simply quoting jobs and become a true consultant to clients while growing their career in the fire protection industry.
