About the job
As the Manager of Commercial Product Strategy for Hygienic Fluid Handling, you will lead a team of commercial product managers, setting the vision and driving growth for our product portfolio in the U.S. market.

You will lead one of five product groups (Valves, Pumps, Mixing & Blending, Tank Equipment, and Installation Material) and collaborate with global and regional stakeholders to align U.S. objectives with the broader business strategy. This is a hybrid role based in Kenosha, WI, with consideration for remote candidates outside the area.
As a part of the team, you will:
Lead the U.S. Hygienic Fluid Handling product plan, setting portfolio volume and margin targets in collaboration with the Business Unit Manager.
Monitor performance against targets, ensuring alignment with short- and long-term objectives, and oversee monthly KPI tracking (order volume, gross margin).
Drive regional industry initiatives and product-specific goals, ensuring consistent growth and innovation.
Foster a customer-centric, high-performance team environment, emphasizing motivation, accountability, and goal achievement.
Provide coaching and leadership to enhance team members’ professional and technical skills, aligning development with business objectives.
Develop and execute U.S. sales and marketing strategies for the product portfolio to increase market share.
Identify new customer segments and market channels, supporting the outside sales team with commercial and application expertise.
Oversee key project opportunities, working with Channel and Business Development teams to establish competitive pricing and product strategies.
Act as the primary U.S. contact for the Global Pump Portfolio Manager, coordinating efforts and representing U.S. interests in global planning.
Deliver product training for channel partners and customers, enhancing their technical and sales capabilities.
Evaluate and support the technical acumen of the sales team through ongoing training initiatives.
We care about diversity, inclusion and equity in our recruitment processes. We also believe behavioural traits can provide important insights into a candidate's fit to a role. To help us achieve this we apply Pymetrics assessments, and upon application you will be invited to play the assessment games.
What you know:
You have a Bachelor's degree in business or technical field or equivalent industry experience, and:
Proven success in marketing, pricing, and sales strategy at a national level, ideally with fluid handling products (pumps, valves, tank cleaning equipment).
Industry knowledge in Food Processing, Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics, or related fields is a plus.
Experience in B2B industrial sales, with strong analytical, strategic, and commercial skills.
Expertise in Excel or similar tools for data-driven sales optimization.
