Stay up to date on industry regulations, safety requirements, and new technology relevant to offshore tooling and automation.
Utilize CRM software to manage pipeline and customer communication.


Qualifications

Experience in offshore drilling or the broader oil & gas industry, ideally with exposure to mechanical tooling or automation solutions.
Understanding of offshore procurement practices, technical bid evaluations, and compliance-driven purchasing decisions.
Familiarity with winch, hoist, and hydraulic/pneumatic tooling is highly preferred.
Ability to interpret technical documents such as schematics, drawings, and performance specs.
Excellent interpersonal, negotiation, and technical presentation skills.
Comfortable working independently in a field-based role with regular travel (including offshore environments).
CRM and Microsoft Office proficiency required; ERP system experience a plus.
