Hello potential future colleague!

The original wedge-locking company that started in a red barn in Mattmar, northern Sweden, back 40 or so years ago has grown into the global industry leader in bolting and engineering solutions, at a rate such that we need more colleagues for our mission to make the world a safer place.

Most don’t devote a thought to bolts loosening – but we do. Every minute. Every hour. All day. All Year. Our promise to build connections that last goes beyond manufacturing the best bolting technologies to expert support and pioneering digital solutions.

We are seeking a highly motivated and customer-focused individual to join our Nord-Lock Group team as a Regional Sales Manager with our TenEx (Tensioning & Expander) Business Unit. You will be responsible for providing exceptional service to our customers and ensuring their needs are met. You will be involved in some of the day-to-day sales and customer experience process, but also focused on product specification, project-based business, long term growth planning and development and more. As a member of this team, you will extensively collaborate with multiple other departments and stakeholders within the organization, as well as client-side. This role will be focused on sales within the Gulf Coast USA market (TX, OK, LA) primarily, with potential to expand and support other areas in the USA. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys helping others and has excellent communication skills.

The role will report to our Pittsburgh, PA facility but you will be able to work remotely with the expectation of living near a major international airport in the U.S.
