VP of Sales - Premium Heating Products

Our client is a privately owned multinational with a worldwide reputation as the leading name in premium outdoor heating for both residential and hospitality settings. Since establishing itself in the North American market, the business has expanded organically at close to 20 percent each year, and it is now appointing its first dedicated VP of Sales for North America.
<\/p>

In this role you will assume complete responsibility for the North American sales function, directing a team of around 15 people spanning specification sales, builder sales, inside sales, and channel management across both the United States and Canada. The position reports into the President of Global Heating and carries accountability to the CEO.
<\/p>

This is a mandate built on growth and business development rather than caretaking. You will generate pipeline, unlock new markets and verticals, design a scalable sales operating model, and shape the commercial strategy that underpins the company's growth ambitions for 2027 through 2030. Regional accountability sits with you for revenue delivery, gross margin performance, and the management of cost\-to\-serve.
