Responsibilities
What Your Future Looks Like In This Role:

Drive Revenue & Growth: Deliver on sales and profitability goals by building committed distributor partnerships that move volume and prioritize TP‑Link across product lines.

Forecast & Execute: Collaborate with partners to forecast demand, manage inventory levels, and eliminate gaps — ensuring TP‑Link is always ready to ship and to win.

Launch & Promote: Lead channel‑specific promotions and product rollouts that keep TP‑Link top‑of‑mind, top‑of‑line, and on top of the shelf.

Collaborate & Influence: Work cross‑functionally with internal sales, marketing, and product teams to bring channel opportunities to life and drive alignment across teams.

Monitor & Report: Identify shifts in market trends, pricing, and competitor movement — and turn that intel into action for the business.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Own and grow revenue through key security and low‑voltage distributors across the U.S., with a focus on ADI, Wesco/Anixter, KOA, Silmar, and Pioneer Music Company.

Develop deep relationships with buyers, category managers, and regional sales leadership to drive alignment on product strategy and revenue goals.

Execute joint business plans, promotions, and product launches to boost TP‑Link’s share of wallet and competitive positioning.

Conduct regular QBRs, forecasting sessions, and sales reviews to ensure sales objectives are met or exceeded.

Build net new customers through training and education with consultants and installers; maximize deal registration, inventory availability, and quoting.

Excellent closing skills with proven ability to communicate clearly — whether it’s over the phone, in writing, presenting to leadership, or in a distributor branch.

Solid interpersonal skills, self‑motivation, and ownership mindset — you don’t wait for permission; you drive results.

Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite — especially Excel, PowerPoint, and Word — and comfort using CRM tools to track KPIs, pipeline, and account activity.

Ability to quickly learn product features and translate them into value for partners and end‑users.

Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret sales data, identify trends, and adjust strategy accordingly.
