About the Company
We're partnering with a state-of-the-art Tier 1 automotive supplier known for producing stamped and welded components for major OEMs. Their Dayton facility is built on advanced technology, lean systems, and high standards for quality and efficiency. This is a well-established organization with strong customer relationships and a culture of continuous improvement.

- Build and maintain strong relationships with key OEM customers (including Honda) and internal stakeholders
- Lead, coach, and develop the sales team — performance management, training, and coordination
- Develop profit improvement proposals as part of ongoing kaizen activities
- Deliver presentations to internal leadership and external customers
- Troubleshoot product-related issues and act as a key escalation point
- Travel domestically and internationally on short notice as needed
What You'll Bring
- 8+ years of sales experience, ideally within automotive Tier 1 or Tier 2 supply chain
- Proven experience managing a sales team and developing strategic plans
- Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office and related business tools
- Experience with OEM customer management (Honda experience a strong plus)
- Bilingual English/Japanese is preferred but not required
- Ability to travel on short notice, including internationally
-
