Relying on available database marketing information, the Service Sales representative will develop and implement targeted account penetration plans that are closely coordinated with regional business growth initiatives within the PI-US product and service teams. Key performance criteria will be growth of revenue generated from maintenance contract accounts, and other services such as equipment qualification, calibration certification documentation, training and other consulting services.
