Regional Sales Manager - East
Zero Motorcycles is looking for a Regional Sales Manager to drive the growth of our brand throughout the Eastern US. We love motorcycles and motorcyclists of all types! If, however, you're interested in playing a part in developing the future of motorcycling, read on!
This is a highly visible sales support and dealer development position that requires extensive travel (we'll provide you with a van filled with demo motorcycles and accessories to hit the road). At certain times of the year, you will travel up to three or four nights per week with occasional weekend travel for events. You'll need a valid driver's license with a motorcycle endorsement - with a good driving record.
You will be the primary point of contact between Zero Motorcycles and dealerships in your assigned region so it's important that you know your way around a powersports dealership, have a thorough understanding of sales processes, and a commitment to excellent customer service. Prior experience working in the powersports industry and/or a dealership is strongly preferred and would be a significant advantage. Absent that experience, you would have to make a very compelling case for why you should be considered.
About Zero Motorcycles
By combining the best aspects of a traditional motorcycle with today's most advanced technology, we produce high-performance electric motorcycles that are lightweight, efficient, fast off-the-line, and fun to ride. From a prototype conceived inside a Santa Cruz, California garage in 2006, Zero has rapidly grown into an international motorcycle company.
Joining the sales team at Zero now means joining a team that helped our dealers produced over 89% sales growth in 2025 while expanding our dealer network by over 40%. We've posted great growth in both of those categories in 2026 and we're full throttle into the fall and heading into 2027.
