Do you love sales, building relationships, and the thrill of putting a great deal together? Steel Aviation is growing, and we're looking for a driven, personable, and competitive sales professional to join our team in Dayton, Ohio. We're not looking for someone who simply wants another sales job. We're looking for someone who wants to build a career in aviation, develop relationships with aircraft owners and buyers across the country, and become part of a dynamic team that genuinely enjoys what we do. Aviation sales experience is helpful, but it is not required. A love of aviation is. The right person will bring strong communication skills, a willingness to learn, a great attitude, and the drive to create opportunities rather than wait for them to appear. We can teach you the aircraft business. We can teach you our process. What we can't teach is enthusiasm, work ethic, curiosity, and the desire to win. As an Aircraft Sales Executive, you'll develop relationships with aircraft owners, buyers, operators, and other aviation professionals; prospect for new business and identify potential aircraft listings; assist clients throughout the aircraft buying and selling process; follow up consistently with prospective and existing clients; learn aircraft markets, values, specifications, and industry trends; work closely with an experienced and supportive team; and build a personal book of business within the aviation industry. We want someone who is confident talking to people, comfortable picking up the phone, persistent without being pushy, coachable, competitive, organized, and excited by the opportunity to build something. Most importantly, we want someone who loves airplanes. You don't need to be a pilot or come from an aviation sales background, but if walking onto a ramp full of aircraft doesn't get you at least a little excited, this probably isn't the job for you. Why Steel Aviation? Steel Aviation offers the opportunity to build a career in an exciting industry while working alongside a dynamic, experienced team that takes its business seriously without taking itself too seriously. We believe great performance should be rewarded, which is why we offer one of the most competitive compensation opportunities in the aviation sales industry. For someone willing to learn, prospect, build relationships, and consistently put in the work, the opportunity for professional and financial growth is significant. This positions pay scale will vary we offer a commission and salary structure where you control your earning potential. You'll receive hands-on training, ongoing sales coaching, direct access to experienced aviation professionals, and the opportunity to develop relationships throughout the aircraft marketplace. This is an on-site position based at our airport in Phillipsburg, Ohio near Dayton. Candidates must be willing and able to work from the Dayton office; this is not a remote position. If you're competitive, relationship-driven, passionate about aviation, and ready to turn that passion into a career, we'd like to meet you.

Requirements:

Prior sales experience is strongly preferred; experience in aircraft, automotive, luxury goods, real estate, or another relationship-driven sales environment is a plus.
