Vice President of Sales

The company is seeking a commercially astute, hands-on Vice President of Sales to lead its go-to-market strategy. This is more than a traditional sales role—it is a pivotal executive leadership opportunity for someone who thrives at the intersection of technical selling, regulated industry environments, and exceptional customer experience.

As the Vice President of Sales…

You will be responsible for expanding market presence within two of the most demanding verticals: aerospace and medical devices. You will develop and execute a strategic growth roadmap while building and strengthening relationships with OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and advanced manufacturers that rely on high-performance plating and surface treatment solutions.

You will also lead a close-knit team of inside sales and customer service professionals, guiding them with clarity, empathy, and a strong performance mindset. From opportunity development and pipeline management to solution-based selling and customer retention, you will be expected to elevate both revenue growth and customer trust.

This is a highly collaborative role, reporting directly to the General Manager, and requires close alignment with operations, quality, and engineering to ensure seamless execution and delivery.

What You Bring

• 10+ years of progressive B2B sales leadership experience, ideally within contract manufacturing, coatings, surface treatment, or precision components for regulated industries
• Deep familiarity with aerospace and/or medical device markets, including traceability, compliance, and technical requirements
• A proven track record of strategic account growth, new business development, and relationship-building across procurement, engineering, and executive stakeholders
• Demonstrated ability to lead and coach customer-facing teams, with experience in inside sales process design, CRM utilization, and a customer-first approach
• Strong business acumen, with the ability to operate effectively in both executive and manufacturing environments
• A hands-on, results-oriented leadership style grounded in accountability and responsiveness

Why This Role, Why Now

This is a rare opportunity to step into a senior executive role within a growing, privately held organization that has earned an outstanding reputation for precision electroplating. With ongoing investments in technology, talent, and leadership, this role offers immediate and measurable impact. You will help shape strategy, build scalable sales capability, and create long-term customer partnerships in two of the most critical sectors in advanced manufacturing.
