1. Director, Sales Force Expansion

   SunSource

   Jan 2016 — Present · Addison, IL, US

   Key areas of focus as Director of Sales Force Expansion include closely partnering with Executive Management to forecast annual sales workforce planning goals. Further, I partner with sales leadership, and new and existing Account Managers to achieve sales goals annually. Together we set onboarding and development plans, including performance metrics and goals, paired with continual support to the sales management team. I work closely with Human Resources and Talent Acquisition to ensure our established sales profile is utilized in the selection, and training and development of new sales professionals. SunSource also has an excellent entry level sales development program. Together with HR and TA, we host a 12 month training and development program for recent college graduates. This program is designed to prepare entry level sales candidates for a successful launch to our Account Manager sales positions.
