Description: Sales Market Manager – Minneapolis, MN

Are you a natural leader who thrives in navigating complexity? Do you enjoy being in the market, building trusted partnerships, and bringing people together to achieve shared goals? Are you energized by working side‑by‑side with dealers and clients to turn strategy into action? If you’re a collaborative sales professional who leans into challenges and values teamwork, this could be the role for you.

We’re looking for a commercially minded, relationship‑driven leader with consultative sales experience who enjoys working in a team‑based selling environment. This role is ideal for someone who brings strong presence, sound judgment, and the ability to influence without authority—while seeing ambiguity as opportunity.

• Serve as the primary Steelcase market leader and trusted partner to dealers, collaborating on business development strategy and execution — build and maintain strong relationships with key clients and market influencers through consistent in‑market engagement
• Provide leadership and coordination across CBM, ADM, and vertical market partners (e.g., healthcare, education)
• Set aligned goals with dealers and internal teams, and drive disciplined execution against those plans
• Navigate and resolve conflict constructively, fostering trust and collaboration across diverse stakeholders
• Contribute to a high‑performing, team‑based culture grounded in creativity, productivity, commitment, and collaboration

Role time allocation is approximately 60% external client/influencer facing, 20% dealer collaboration, and 20% internal partnership.

• Experience in business‑to‑business sales with demonstrated expertise in the contract furniture, built environment, or commercial interiors industry
• Proven ability to manage complex initiatives involving multiple stakeholders
• Strong communication, relationship‑building, and influencing skills across varied audiences

• Experience working within a dealer‑based or partner‑led sales model
• Ability to lead through influence in matrixed or collaborative environments
• Demonstrated leadership presence, including the ability to command a room and inspire confidence
• Desire to work in, and contribute to, a true team‑based selling culture

Compensation - This role is eligible for a competitive salary and incentive program.
