Strategic Account Manager - National Service Providers
We're looking for an experienced Strategic National Accounts Manager to help grow our business with the largest national service providers across North America. This isn't a traditional account management role. We're looking for someone who understands how large service organizations operate—someone who knows how to navigate complex organizations, build relationships at multiple levels, uncover new opportunities, and develop long-term growth strategies across multiple business units and operating regions.
The ideal candidate is:
- Experienced
managing large strategic or national accounts - Comfortable
navigating complex organizations with multiple stakeholders - Skilled at
building executive relationships while also engaging field operations and
safety teams - A
self-starter who proactively identifies opportunities rather than simply
responding to customer requests - Motivated,
competitive, and driven by results - Passionate
about helping customers improve safety, productivity, and operational
performance
At Vertical Supply Group, you'll represent a
portfolio of industry-leading brands across rope, rigging, climbing, lifting,
fall protection, and work-at-height solutions while helping some of North
America's largest contractors standardize equipment, improve worker safety, and
solve complex operational challenges. This
is an opportunity to build strategic partnerships—not simply manage accounts.
What You'll Do
Success in this role is measured by your
ability to grow strategic relationships, uncover new opportunities, expand
product adoption, and increase revenue across your assigned national accounts.
You'll be responsible for:
- Developing
and executing strategic account plans for assigned National Service
Provider customers. - Building
relationships with executive leadership, operations, safety, procurement,
fleet, training, and regional management teams. - Identifying
new opportunities to expand VSG's portfolio across multiple business
units, regions, and operating divisions. - Increasing
share of wallet through cross-selling and introducing new products and
solutions. - Leading
business reviews and executive planning meetings with key customers. - Coordinating
internally across sales, customer service, operations, marketing, and
product management to ensure exceptional customer support. - Working
alongside distributor partners and internal sales teams to maximize growth
opportunities. - Conducting
product demonstrations, new product introductions, and customer training. - Developing
three-year strategic growth plans for each assigned account. - Maintaining
a disciplined opportunity pipeline while accurately forecasting revenue. - Providing
Voice of Customer (VOC), competitive intelligence, and market feedback
that influence future product development. - Representing
Vertical Supply Group at customer events, trade shows, and industry
conferences.
What Success Looks Like
Successful candidates will:
- Become
trusted advisors to their largest customers. - Expand
relationships beyond purchasing into operations, safety, and executive
leadership. - Increase
product penetration across multiple VSG brands. - Identify and
close new enterprise-wide opportunities. - Grow revenue
and share of wallet year over year. - Build
multi-year strategic partnerships that create sustainable growth. - Deliver
measurable business results while providing outstanding customer
experience.
Requirements
Qualifications
We're looking for someone who combines
strategic thinking with exceptional relationship-building skills.
Preferred qualifications include:
- Five or more
years of successful experience managing large national or strategic
accounts. - Proven
ability to grow enterprise-level customer relationships. - Experience
selling industrial safety, climbing, rope, rigging, lifting, fall
protection, PPE, or related products preferred. - Strong
executive communication, presentation, and negotiation skills. - Demonstrated
success identifying and developing new business opportunities within
existing customers. - Experience
managing complex sales cycles across multiple stakeholders. - Strong
organizational skills with disciplined pipeline and account management. - Proficiency
with Microsoft Office; CRM and ERP experience preferred (NetSuite
experience is a plus). - Ability to
travel approximately 50% throughout North America. - Located near
a major airport preferred.
