Relationship Development Manager / Sales Executive – Fire Life Safety

Role Overview

This position is for a motivated sales professional to drive new business and relationship growth in the fire life safety sector across the Seattle and Portland territories. The company serves multifamily, commercial, municipal, and HOA customers with a broad range of fire protection services, supported by technology such as FireCloud and a culture centered on accountability, proactive service, and high standards.

The role suits an entrepreneurial seller who enjoys prospecting, opening new accounts, and delivering a premium client experience. The selected candidate will help expand market presence, manage important customer relationships, and contribute directly to revenue growth. Applicants need to be based in Seattle or Portland and be willing to work across both markets.

Territory

Seattle, WA and Portland, OR.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify and win new accounts through outbound outreach, networking, and referral-based business generation.
• Carry out site visits and prepare service proposals covering fire life safety services such as extinguishers, sprinklers, alarms, fire pumps, and generators.
• Show prospective clients how FireCloud adds value and differentiates the company’s offering.
• Develop trusted relationships with property managers, facilities leaders, and procurement stakeholders.
• Consistently achieve or surpass quarterly sales goals and activity targets.
• Work closely with operations, customer service, and finance teams to support smooth service delivery.

Candidate Profile

The ideal person has at least 3 years of outside sales experience, preferably in fire life safety, building services, or other B2B service environments. A history of meeting or exceeding sales targets is important, along with strong consultative selling ability and relationship management skills. Excellent verbal and written communication, presentation, and negotiation skills are also needed.

Success in this role requires initiative, strong personal accountability, and a collaborative approach. Experience in multifamily or the fire protection space is highly desirable. Familiarity with fire codes, NFPA standards, or life safety regulations would be an added advantage.

Compensation & Benefits

The package includes a competitive base salary plus uncapped commission. The commission plan pays 10% on inspection, testing, and monitoring services. A company vehicle and phone are provided, along with full medical, dental, and vision coverage, a 401(k) with company match, and ongoing training and professional development.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Strong growth potential in a high-opportunity territory.
• Uncapped earning potential with a clear commission structure.
• Access to FireCloud, a market differentiator powered by modern technology.
• Company vehicle provided, reducing travel-related personal expense.
• Chance to develop a book of business across two major metropolitan markets.
• Meaningful work that supports safety, compliance, and community protection.

Additional Information

This role is focused on building long-term client relationships while contributing to fire safety outcomes and service excellence. Candidates should be prepared to operate as a self-starter and manage territory coverage across both Seattle and Portland.
