Personal Safety & Rescue Sales Representative

🚒 NOT ALL SALES JOBS SAVE LIVES. THIS ONE SUPPORTS THE PEOPLE WHO DO.

Fire & Rescue Equipment Sales Representative | East Central Indiana Territory

🚨 WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

As our Fire Industry Sales Representative, you'll manage and grow a territory by building strong relationships with fire departments, municipalities, and emergency response organizations.

You'll spend your time where it matters most—in front of customers, understanding their challenges, demonstrating solutions, and helping ensure first responders have the equipment they need to do their jobs safely and effectively.

Your Day Might Include:

🔥 Meeting with Fire Chiefs, officers, and purchasing decision-makers

🔥 Demonstrating industry-leading firefighting equipment and gear

🔥 Building long-term customer relationships through consultative selling

🔥 Guiding customers from initial conversation through delivery and beyond

🔥 Identifying opportunities to expand existing accounts and develop new business

🔥 Maintaining accurate sales activity and forecasting through CRM

🔥 Understanding customer budgets, purchasing processes, and financing options

🔥 Staying current on industry trends, products, and competitor offerings

🔥 Serving as a trusted advisor—not just a salesperson

🏆 WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE DIFFERENT?

You'll represent products that truly matter.

The equipment you help place into service isn't a luxury purchase—it's gear firefighters and emergency responders rely on when lives are on the line.

Every customer conversation has purpose.

Every relationship matters.

Every sale helps support those who serve their communities.
