Houston, TX or Gulf Coast to Louisiana Remote

An established, privately owned engineering firm seeks a skilled individual to spearhead growth in the Gulf Coast region within the refining, chemical, and petrochemical sectors.

This position is not about managing, but rather about hunting — seeking someone who is actively engaging with clients, possesses strong relationships with key decision-makers at major companies, and understands how to market engineering and construction services for complex, long-term projects.

Responsibilities:

Developing and securing new business with downstream and chemical clients in the Gulf Coast area, including locations like Houston, Beaumont, Corpus Christi, and Lake Charles. The role includes a VP-level title for credibility in negotiations, but focuses on individual performance and revenue generation rather than team leadership.

The ideal candidate will have:

• Over 10 years of experience selling EPC, engineering services, or capital project solutions to refineries, chemical plants, or petrochemical facilities
• Established connections with procurement, engineering, and project management professionals at companies such as Chevron, Dow, LyondellBasell, BASF, Phillips 66, Celanese, Motiva, INEOS, Sasol, or similar
• A track record of securing multi-million dollar project contracts, not just pursuing them
• The ability to work autonomously and navigate lengthy sales cycles without constant supervision

Salary: $150,000–$185,000 base salary plus bonus and comprehensive benefits package
