Regional Sales Manager – Wisconsin Territory 📍 Remote (Must Be Local to Wisconsin) | Green Bay or Milwaukee Area Preferred | Direct Hire | $81,000 – $107,000 Base

About the Opportunity

A global, family-owned manufacturer of industrial coating products is looking for a Regional Sales Manager to take ownership of a booming, high-performing Wisconsin territory and upper Michigan peninsula. This is a retirement backfill — the territory has already been built and is performing well — so the right person comes in with a strong foundation and the opportunity to grow it further.

This is a remote, work-from-home role with regular field travel within the territory. The company has been in business for over 80 years, operates globally, and has built a strong reputation for product quality and technical expertise. They are specifically looking for someone with a long-term mindset who wants to plant roots in a territory and own it for years to come.

This role is for someone already living in Wisconsin — Green Bay or Milwaukee area strongly preferred. Candidates outside of Wisconsin will not be considered.

What You'll Be Doing

• Managing and growing a portfolio of existing customer accounts — approximately 60% of the role
• Hunting and developing new business within the Wisconsin and upper Michigan territory — approximately 40%
• Calling on C-Suite, Plant Managers, Engineering Managers, purchasing, estimators, and engineers
• Traveling within the territory with overnight stays approximately every other week
• Providing technical service and product training to customers and their applicators
• Logging all customer interactions in CRM and managing monthly goals, budgets, and forecasting
• Entering data into SAP

What We're Looking For

• Minimum 3 years of outside B2B sales experience in a manufacturing environment
• Coatings industry experience strongly preferred — powder coatings, liquid paint, chemical pretreat, or equipment sales to powder coaters
• Comfortable calling on all levels including C-Suite and Plant/Engineering Management
• Self-managing and comfortable working remotely and on the road
• Long-term mindset — this company values tenure and relationship building over transactional selling
• Valid driver's license and ability to travel overnight within the territory
• Must be local to Wisconsin — Green Bay or Milwaukee area strongly preferred

Nice to Have

• SAP experience
• Strong working knowledge of powder coatings or related industrial finishing products
• College degree preferred

Compensation Package

• Base Salary: $81,000 – $107,000 depending on experience
• Annual Bonus: $6,000 – $10,000
• Car Allowance: $12,000/year
• Meal Allowance: $5,400/year
• Company-paid hotel rooms for overnight travel
• Per Diem: $40/day for overnight stays
• 401(k) with 5% company contribution (after 90 days)
• Health Insurance (after 90 days)
• 10 PTO Days
• Remote / work from home with territory travel

Why This Role

• Take over a booming, high-performing territory with existing accounts and room to grow
• Work for a stable, globally recognized brand with 80+ years in the industry
• Remote role with true autonomy — this company trusts their sales team
• Generous total compensation package including car allowance, meal allowance, and per diem on top of a strong base
• Family-oriented culture with a people-first mindset and long-term employee development

What We're NOT Looking For

Candidates outside of Wisconsin, those without outside B2B sales experience, or candidates with a history of frequent job changes will not be a fit. This role is for someone ready to commit to a territory and build something for the long haul.
