About DEMA Engineering Company
DEMA Engineering is the global leader in chemical dispensing and fluid control solutions - and has been since 1956. Founded as a family business and still family-owned today, DEMA has grown to a global enterprise with 420+ team members across five U.S. manufacturing facilities (Missouri, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina) and additional operations in the Netherlands and Australia.
Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, DEMA serves industrial, institutional, food service, laundry, agricultural, car wash, OEM, and commercial markets worldwide. DEMA is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified, reflecting an enduring commitment to quality and environmental responsibility.
When you join DEMA, you're joining a four-generation family business where quality and craftsmanship are still personal. DEMA's philosophy, rooted in founder Hermann Deutsch's belief in "the relentless pursuit of excellence," shapes how the team works, builds products, and serves customers.
What Makes This Role Unique at DEMA
Most sales roles ask you to move product. This one asks you to solve problems. DEMA's product line spans chemical dispensing systems, fluid control devices, solenoid valves, pumps, injectors, and more. You'll become a genuine technical resource for your customers, backed by an engineering and manufacturing team that has been building solutions for nearly 70 years. At DEMA, the sales team is taken seriously, supported fully, and recognized for the critical role they play in our continued global growth.
The Opportunity
As Regional Sales Manager, you will be the face of DEMA across the Upper Midwest, responsible for driving revenue growth, expanding the customer base, and deepening relationships across industrial, institutional, food service, commercial, and related markets. You'll combine consultative selling with hands-on technical knowledge to help customers solve real operational challenges using DEMA solutions. This role is central to DEMA's continued growth and directly contributes to the company's long-term market leadership.
