We are seeking a proven Sales Director to lead and grow our sales organization within the horizontal drilling sector. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who understands the industry, knows how to build strong relationships, and can drive both strategy and results.

The right candidate will bring a combination of industry credibility, leadership strength, and business development expertise, with the ability to guide a sales team while identifying new opportunities for growth, profitability, and market expansion.

  • Create a culture of accountability, performance, and continuous improvement across the sales function

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience
  • 5+ years of horizontal drilling industry experience required
  • 10+ years of sales experience
  • 3+ years of sales leadership experience
  • Strong network and established relationships within the industry
  • Proven ability to develop winning sales strategies and deliver measurable results
  • Strong leadership, communication, and team-building skills
  • Ability to think strategically while also driving day-to-day execution

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Opportunity to lead and shape a growing sales organization
  • Visible role with direct impact on company growth and market position
  • Work alongside industry professionals in a fast-moving, relationship-driven environment
  • Strong platform for a sales leader who wants to make a real mark

Ideal Candidate

  • You are a relationship-driven sales leader who understands the horizontal drilling market, knows how to open doors, and has the leadership presence to inspire a team. You are both strategic and hands-on, comfortable building plans, tracking performance, and helping your team win in the field.
