JOB SUMMARY
This is a hunter role, not a gatherer. The data center and AI infrastructure market is growing faster than anyone can cover it, and we are looking for someone who creates demand rather than manages an existing book. The Senior Account Manager is responsible for developing and managing sales channels for Thermo Bond Solutions' modular enclosure product line, which serves advanced computing and critical digital infrastructure deployments. The role owns its assigned relationships end to end — development, enablement, opportunity management, quoting, and close — and carries a sales target. Thermo Bond Solutions reaches this market through several routes: national resellers and technology solution providers; systems integrators and EPC contractors; OEM and technology partners who incorporate our enclosures into their own offerings; and direct relationships with operators, developers, and end users deploying compute capacity. This position may be assigned to one or more of these channels, and the assignment may change as the business develops. This position will initially be hands-on, working live opportunities while establishing the account plans, enablement programs, and commercial standards that make the assigned channel repeatable. Over time, the Senior Account Manager will take on additional channels or accounts, contribute to sales process development, and mentor other members of the sales team.
