Executive Search on the East Coast: SnapDragon Places Director of East Coast Sales

Exciting Placement Announcement: Director of East Coast Sales

We are thrilled to announce the successful placement of a Director of East Coast Sales for one of our valued clients! This collaboration came at a pivotal time, as the company had nearly doubled its annual sales over the past three years and needed a proven sales leader to manage a team generating $100M+ in regional revenue while expanding their presence across the East Coast.

A Critical Search for Top Sales Leadership

Meeting the Client’s High Standards

Known for their dynamic “work hard, play hard” culture, our client was seeking a leader who could deliver results while inspiring and developing their team. It was no small challenge, studies show that less than 20% of senior sales director roles in the building products industry are filled in under 90 days, making this a highly competitive search.

Introducing the Ideal Candidate

Enter our exceptional candidate: with over a decade of experience driving revenue growth, she has successfully led teams responsible for $50M+ in annual sales while achieving double-digit growth year-over-year. Her expertise spans sales enablement, data-driven strategy, and talent development, all while mentoring and scaling high-performing teams.

More Than Just a Skill Set

Aligning Culture with Leadership

Beyond professional accomplishments, this leader stood out for her ability to integrate seamlessly into the client’s unique culture, balancing ambition with collaboration and innovation with execution. She brings not just skill but also energy, vision, and leadership to the role.

This placement underscores the value of industry-specific recruiting in a competitive market where top performers rarely appear on job boards. With precision, proactive engagement, and a deep understanding of both client needs and candidate capabilities, SnapDragon Associates delivered results that will drive growth for years to come.

Congratulations to All

We celebrate both our client and this incredible leader as they begin a new chapter together. We can’t wait to watch the impact she makes as Director of East Coast Sales.
