What You Will Do

Step into a high-impact sales role where opportunity is strong and growth potential is even stronger. As a Commercial Sales Executive, you’ll lead the charge in expanding Johnson Controls’ footprint across Altoona and Greensburg—two markets primed for growth.

You’ll act as a true trusted advisor and brand ambassador, helping customers modernize their security solutions with cutting-edge technology. This is a role for a driven seller who thrives on building relationships, closing new business, and delivering long-term value to customers.

How You Will Make an Impact

  • Drive new business growth by developing strategic relationships and winning new commercial customers in a high-potential territory

  • Build a strong network through referrals, partnerships, and Centers of Influence

  • Stay ahead of the industry by maintaining deep product knowledge and understanding evolving client needs

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out

  • Untapped market potential in Altoona and Greensburg gives you room to make a real impact

  • Industry-leading solutions backed by a globally recognized brand

  • Entrepreneurial environment with the support of a large organization

  • Clear path to success for high performers who consistently exceed targets

What We’re Looking For

Required

  • Strong communication and presentation skills, including ability to engage senior-level decision makers

  • Ability to manage a full sales cycle independently

  • Local travel within territory

Preferred

  • 2+ years of successful commercial sales experience in security, technology, or IT

  • Proven track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets

  • College degree

HIRING SALARY RANGE: $53K - $65K (Salary to be determined by the education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities of the applicant, internal equity, and alignment with market data.)
