By integrating a vast catalog of components with a world-class digital manufacturing platform, MISUMI Americas empowers engineers and procurement teams to accelerate innovation across the entire product lifecycle. With operations in the San Francisco Bay Area and Chicago, the company serves as a vital partner for the most innovative companies in the Americas.</div><h3>Impact in this Role</h3> The Vice President, Territory Sales leads the national territory field sales organization — six frontline sales directors, each leading six to eight field account executives, for a combined organization of roughly 50 — with full ownership of the territory revenue plan and the mandate to sell the entire solution offering across Custom, Configurable, and Standard components. This is a P&L-minded operator role charged with raising the ceiling of a proven, revenue-producing organization: elevating frontline sales management, instilling disciplined account planning and pipeline rigor, and shifting the conversation from part numbers and price to productivity, uptime, and total cost of ownership. You will report to the Chief Revenue Officer.  <h3>What You’ll Be Doing</h3> Revenue Ownership & Operating Rigor <ul> <li style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Own the territory field sales revenue number — forecast accuracy, pipeline coverage, and quota attainment across all six director teams.</li> <li style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;
