Position Overview

The National Pro Sales Manager owns Levolor's growth strategy in the Pro channel - the segment of business that lives outside the retail environment and sells directly to contractors, builders, remodelers, multifamily and commercial developers, property managers, and related trade professionals. This is a build-from-the-ground-up opportunity. You will define the go-to-market approach, stand up and lead a team of Pro Specialists, and turn an emerging line of business into a durable, scalable growth engine for Levolor.

This role is equal parts strategist, builder, and coach. You'll set the vision and the numbers, then put the people, processes, and relationships in place to hit them.

What you'll do

• Develop and own the national sales strategy for the Pro channel, including target segments, territory design, account prioritization, and revenue and margin goals.
• Recruit, hire, onboard, coach, and lead a growing team of Pro Specialists; set clear expectations, quotas, and development plans.
• Build the operating rhythm for the team - pipeline reviews, forecasting, activity cadence, and performance management - with disciplined use of the CRM.
• Establish and grow relationships with key national and regional accounts, and personally lead the most strategic partnerships.
• Partner cross-functionally with marketing, product, pricing, operations, and customer service to build the tools, programs, samples, and support the Pro channel needs to win.
• Develop channel-specific programs (pricing structures, loyalty/incentive programs, trade promotions, quoting and ordering processes) that make Levolor easy to do business with for the trade.
• Deliver accurate sales forecasts and manage the channel budget; report on performance, pipeline health, and market trends to the Sr. Director, Field Sales.
• Identify and open new segments and geographies as the business scales.
• Represent Levolor at trade shows, industry associations, and Pro-facing events; act as a senior voice for the channel internally and externally.
• Gather and synthesize competitive and market intelligence to sharpen strategy and product positioning.

Who you are

• 8+ years of B2B sales experience, with a track record of growing revenue in a field or channel sales environment.
• 3+ years of people leadership experience, including hiring and developing sales talent.
• Demonstrated success building or scaling a sales channel, territory, or line of business - ideally from an early or greenfield stage.
• Strong commercial acumen: comfortable owning targets, forecasting, pricing, and margin.
• Proficiency with CRM and sales analytics tools; disciplined about pipeline and data.
• Willingness and ability to travel extensively.
• Valid driver's license and clean driving record.
• Location: Candidates based in the Atlanta, GA area are preferred; however, remote candidates will be considered if they are willing and able to travel up to 50%.

Preferred

• Experience in building products, window coverings, home improvement, or a related trade-facing industry.
• Existing relationships within the contractor, builder, or remodeler community.
