Strategic Sales Leadership & Vision Alignment • Develop, communicate, and execute a unified, company-wide sales strategy that aligns with PSG's revenue and EBITDA growth objectives set by Service Logic. • Serve as the single voice of sales strategy across all divisions, ensuring consistent messaging and execution from the corporate office and throughout PSG’s territories. • Work closely with all VPs to maintain a consistent, trusted, and aligned sales process that is conveyed to all RSLs and Sales Representatives. • Partner with RSLs through dotted-line accountability to mentor, coach, and guide them in leading their respective teams and territories. • Drive a culture of overperformance, setting the expectation that meeting booking plan is the floor, not the ceiling. 2. Budget & Goal Attainment • Ensure organizational and individual division budgets and sales goals are met and consistently exceeded across all regions and service lines. • Drive branch maintenance base expansion and project backlog development to consistently exceed plan objectives. • Develop and monitor booking plans and annual sales targets in partnership with the leadership team. • Provide monthly reporting to the leadership team on sales performance, including bookings, market trends, pipeline health, and key focus areas. 3.

Sales Coaching, Strategy & Execution Support • Provide RSLs and individual Sales Representatives with direct strategy and execution support on complex opportunities, large proposals, and strategic pursuits. • Independent of region or proximity to corporate office, provide consistent RSL coverage, deliver coaching, guidance, and deal support to ensure continuous leadership for the sales team.
