We’re looking for a Special Hazard Sales Executive to lead estimates, proposals, and customer negotiations for suppression installation projects across Long Island and New York City. Don’t know much about special hazard systems? That’s totally fine. Prior fire protection experience is helpful but not required. What matters most is your drive to learn, your work ethic, and your desire to succeed. The people who thrive in this role tend to be natural communicators—those who can spark a conversation with anyone and don’t quit until the job is done. If that sounds like you, we want to talk.

At Encore Fire Protection, we are proud to be the east coast's largest full-service fire protection company, serving over 90,000 customers from Maine to Florida. With a team of over 2,400 dedicated employees, we provide innovative, customized fire suppression, fire sprinkler, and fire alarm solutions that protect lives and properties every day. Our goal is to deliver superior experience to those who trust us to safeguard what matters most. We are passionate about continuous growth, innovation, and maintaining a culture that thrives on success and commitment to safety. Our mission? To be the best fire protection company the industry has ever seen.

The person stepping into this Special Hazard Sales Executive role needs to be a team player who can also operate independently. You’ll need a sharp eye for detail, strong organizational skills, and the ability to keep pace in a deadline-driven environment.

This isn’t a typical sales gig. Yes, you’ll be quoting jobs and working closely with customers, but you’ll also spend plenty of time collaborating internally—developing accurate proposals, managing technical details, and making sure everything aligns before a project begins.

Expect to:

• Visit customer sites, take field measurements, and provide accurate estimates for new special hazard systems

• Build detailed proposals and pre-engineered solutions based on code requirements and project needs

• Review construction documents and coordinate with general contractors or building owners to define project scope

• Work closely with project managers, designers, field technicians, and other sales team members

• Split your time—roughly 70% in the office, 30% in the field—meeting clients, assessing systems, and building relationships

What You’ll Need to Succeed

• Sales experience. You should have formal sales experience beyond retail or hospitality. Bonus points if you’ve sold services, not just products.

• A learning mindset. Fire alarm systems are technical. You don’t need to know everything now, but you have to be ready to commit to learning and improving.

• Tech competence. You need to be comfortable with Microsoft Outlook, Word, and Excel. We also use Hubspot and ServiceTrade. We’ll show you the ropes, but you need to be willing to dive in and learn these tools quickly.

• Strong interpersonal skills. You’ll be building long-term relationships with customers, and they’ll count on you to be both an advocate and a trusted resource.

Salary commensurate with experience with opportunity for a results-driven bonus based on personal output and effectiveness in role. Expected salary range between $70,000 - $85,000

What We Offer: At Encore, we’re all about creating a culture where success is celebrated. We recognize that our work makes people’s lives safer, and we reward those who contribute to our growth. Here’s what you can expect:

• Competitive Salary: Compensation commensurate with your experience, with the opportunity to earn performance-based bonuses tied to your personal effectiveness and contributions to the team.
• Purpose-Driven Work Environment: We believe in working smarter, not harder. You’ll be part of a culture that values results, and we empower our team to focus on impactful work.
• Flexible Dress Code: Upon joining, you’ll receive branded Encore gear and we believe in dressing for the objective, not the occasion. Most days, you can enjoy a casual work environment, but we’ll dress up when the situation calls for it.
• Innovative Culture: We encourage a culture of experimentation and improvement. You’ll have the freedom to express your ideas and be part of a company that is always looking to improve and grow.
• Tools for Success: Access to leading-edge web-based productivity tools.
• Health and Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage through Blue Cross to keep you and your family healthy.
• Retirement Planning: Participation in our Fidelity 401(k) plan with a company match, helping you save for your future.
• Life Insurance: Company-paid life insurance policy of $50,000 to give you peace of mind.
