Salary: $150,000 - $170,000 per year
A bit about us: Ready to build the playbook, not just follow one? Our client is a fast-growing, private-equity-backed leader in the commercial door, dock, and access-control industry. Fresh off surpassing 100 employees, the company is in full “buy and build” mode, with multiple acquisitions closing this year and an even stronger pipeline ahead. They're looking for a Regional Director to be the tactical right hand to the COO — the critical bridge between the technicians in the field and the executives driving growth. The salary range above doesn't include additional compensation perks.
Why join us?
- A true career-defining role — join at the inflection point and grow your influence, scope, and trajectory right alongside the platform.
- Real PE-backed momentum — hands-on exposure to M&A integration and high-level strategy from day one.
- You'll help build the playbook, not maintain the status quo — this is a chance to set the regional operating standard.
- You'll earn respect on both sides of the business — talking shop with seasoned techs and KPIs with executives.
- A leadership team that wants a fixer, not a spectator — you'll be trusted to jump in and solve real problems.
Job Details
A Day in This Role
You might start the morning walking the floor of a newly acquired branch that's still running on paper and handshake deals — meeting the team, diagnosing why dispatch keeps falling behind. By midday you're coaching that branch's manager through a cleaner scheduling process, then reviewing labor and billing data to find where money's leaking out of the order-to-cash cycle. You close the day on a call with the COO, flagging what needs executive attention and what you can fix yourself — then you're back on the road to the next stop.
The Role
- Travel to newly acquired branches (often very “mom and pop”) and help professionalize dispatch, service flow, inventory, and more.
- Coach and mentor Branch Managers and Service Managers on running strong P&Ls and efficient, profitable service operations.
- Find and fix order-to-cash issues — billing, routing, or process gaps — and lock in the improvement so it sticks.
- Help integrate acquisitions — blending cultures, systems, and processes, moving teams from paper to platforms like NetSuite or ServiceTitan without losing trust or morale.
- Champion a true “Safety First” culture across all field operations, ensuring OSHA and company standards are lived, not just met.
- Act as the field-level early-warning system for executive leadership — flagging risks and opportunities before they become bigger problems.
- Standardize training and onboarding so newly integrated teams ramp up quickly and consistently.
What You Bring — Must-Haves
- 7+ years of operations leadership in the Commercial Door, Dock, or Access Control industry.
- Deep working knowledge of commercial entry solutions (doors, dock equipment, high-speed doors).
- Willingness to travel 75%+ of the time on a regional basis.
- Comfort with ERP/FSM systems (NetSuite, ServiceTitan, or similar) and strong Excel skills.
What You Bring — Nice-to-Haves
- Prior exposure to M&A integration or multi-site standardization work.
- Formal safety program development or OSHA leadership experience.
Career Path
This role sits at the inflection point of a PE-backed growth story — as the platform adds branches through acquisition, this role's scope, territory, and influence grow right along with it. Strong performers are well-positioned for a path toward VP of Operations or a broader multi-region mandate as the company continues to scale.

Regional Sales Director Jobs in Connecticut: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a regional sales director in Connecticut?
Most regional sales directors in Connecticut reach the role after building several years in individual contributor or sales management positions within industries like insurance, financial services, or life sciences. Connecticut does not require a state-issued license specifically for sales director roles, though professionals selling insurance products must hold a Connecticut Insurance Producer license issued by the Connecticut Insurance Department. A bachelor's degree in business or a related discipline and a consistent record of quota achievement are the most common hiring criteria.
How much do regional sales directors make in Connecticut?
Regional sales directors in Connecticut earn a median of about $162,110 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $92,530 for the lowest 10% to over $281,490 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire regional sales directors in Connecticut?
Companies currently hiring regional sales directors in Connecticut include Jobot, OTIS, and Fivetran, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Connecticut's concentration of insurance carriers, specialty pharmaceutical firms, and industrial manufacturers means openings are spread across both the Gold Coast corridor and the Greater Hartford metro.
Which Connecticut cities have the most regional sales director jobs?
Hartford, Connecticut, and Norwalk account for the largest share of regional sales director openings in Connecticut. Stamford dominates due to its density of financial services headquarters and corporate offices serving the New York metro, while Hartford's insurance and healthcare sector anchors a separate hiring cluster, and Bridgeport draws openings tied to regional distribution and manufacturing operations in the southwestern corridor.
Are there remote regional sales director jobs in Connecticut?
Yes, and more than many management roles, because regional sales directors often oversee distributed teams and work from a home office between client visits. About 71% of regional sales director openings tied to Connecticut are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how common field-based management structures are in sales. Strategic planning, pipeline review, and team coaching functions are the most frequently performed remotely.
How can I get hired as a regional sales director in Connecticut with little or no experience?
The most realistic path is moving up through an account executive or senior sales representative role at a large Connecticut employer and transitioning into a team lead or sales manager position before stepping into a director title. Companies such as The Hartford and Cigna run structured sales development and leadership acceleration programs that promote from within. Building experience in insurance, financial products, or life sciences sales aligns well with Connecticut's dominant hiring industries, and obtaining a Connecticut Insurance Producer license gives candidates a concrete edge when targeting those sectors.
