We’re a customer service business that builds light poles.

At Cem-Tec, that means understanding what our customers need, getting the details right, and doing what we say we’ll do. Every dimension, specification, quote, and delivery commitment matters.

We’re looking for a sales professional who brings exceptional attention to detail, genuine care for customers, and the grit to see things through. Someone who asks the extra question, catches the discrepancy, follows up without being reminded, and keeps working when an opportunity or problem gets difficult.

You’ll take ownership of customer relationships and sales opportunities—from the first inquiry through accurate quoting, earning the order, and coordinating a clear handoff to production. You’ll grow accounts and win new business by being knowledgeable, responsive, and dependable.

Cem-Tec is a family-owned manufacture with more than 40 years of history serving the lighting, transportation, and wireless industries. We've built our reputation on integrity, hard work and taking care of people. We're looking for someone who takes that responsibility as serious as we do.

The role

You’ll manage customer opportunities from initial inquiry through quotation and purchase order, coordinating closely with engineering, operations, and purchasing. Success requires both commercial drive and careful, accurate execution.

What you’ll do

  • Prepare accurate, complete quotations for standard and custom steel products.
  • Review drawings, specifications, quantities, and customer requirements carefully; resolve discrepancies before moving forward.
  • Verify costs, pricing, and scope rather than relying on assumptions.
  • Build customer relationships and identify opportunities to grow existing accounts and develop new business.
  • Follow up consistently on quotations, address questions and objections, and close orders.
  • Review purchase orders against quotations and resolve differences before releasing orders internally.
  • Maintain organized customer records, quoting history, and clear next steps.
  • Coordinate with internal teams to make commitments we can deliver.
  • Take ownership of problems and see them through to resolution.

What we’re looking for

  • Exceptional attention to detail. You verify dimensions, specifications, quantities, and pricing, check your work, and resolve discrepancies before moving forward.
  • A customer service mindset. We’re a customer service business that builds light poles. You listen carefully, respond promptly, and take responsibility for making sure customers get what they need.
  • Grit and initiative. You dig into unfamiliar requirements, work through obstacles, and keep opportunities moving without waiting for reminders.
  • Ownership and follow-through. You keep your commitments, track the details, and close the loop. Mistakes happen, and when they do, own it and help fix it.
  • Sales drive. You build trust, recognize opportunities, follow up consistently, and ask for the order.
  • Strong numerical and technical aptitude. You’re comfortable with calculations and detailed product requirements. You ask questions rather than guess.
  • Strong organizational skills. You manage multiple quotes, accounts, and deadlines while maintaining accuracy and clear communication.
  • B2B sales or quoting experience in manufacturing, steel fabrication, industrial products, or a related field, along with the ability to read and interpret blueprints and specifications.
