Industrial Account Executive We're looking for a self-driven Industrial Account Executive who thrives on building relationships inside industrial facilities and uncovering opportunities that improve mechanical reliability, uptime, and operational performance.

Mechanical or HVAC experience is

You’ll have the opportunity to

build and grow your own industrial customer portfolio , supported by MacMiller's strong brand reputation and a deep bench of technical experts across service, construction, engineering, energy, and controls.

You won’t be starting from scratch. You’ll enter the market with:

Warm internal connections through our service and construction teams

Existing industrial customers who will benefit from follow-up, expansion, and proactive relationship-building

Strong brand recognition in mills, manufacturing facilities, and industrial environments across Oregon and SW Washington

Industrial opportunities require consistency, on-site presence, curiosity, and a consultative mindset. For someone motivated to develop their own book of business, this role offers a rare blend of autonomy, technical credibility, and long-term growth potential.
