  • Maintain opportunity pipelines, project tracking, forecasting, and customer engagement activity in company-approved CRM systems.
  • Represent Johnson Controls at industry associations, conferences, and trade events to strengthen visibility and influence.
  • Own your territory with accountability, integrity, and a clear focus on project outcomes from the first conversation to final award.
  • Stay close to the work by engaging consultants, AHJs, end users, and contractors early, so you can remove obstacles and focus on what matters most in each project.
  • Use candid market feedback, disciplined follow-through, and problem-solving to improve specification strategies and customer engagement every day.
  • Win as one team by working in close alignment with regional sales, engineering, product management, training, and technical support.
  • Translate technical fire detection knowledge into clear recommendations that help project teams choose code-compliant, practical solutions.
  • Track activity consistently in approved CRM tools so forecasting, pipeline management, and next-step actions remain current and reliable.
  • Use presentations, seminars, and product demonstrations to create demand, strengthen trust, and move stakeholders toward specification.
  • Bring a proactive, customer-focused approach to every interaction, balancing strategic territory planning with responsive support on active opportunities.

What We Look For
