Now Hiring - Technical Sales - Sales Engineer in Sycamore, IL

Superior Industrial Equipment, a distributor of pumps, vacuum pumps, blowers and associated equipment, is looking for a Technical Salesman or Sales Engineer to call on end users in the greater Chicagoland area. The preferred candidate must have prior sales experience and/or work experience at related industrial plants. The product requires either a technical degree, an engineering degree or strong knowledge of rotating equipment. The compensation for the position is a combination of salary, commissions and profit sharing.

Superior Industrial Equipment was started in April of 1997 by former employees of Ingersoll-Dresser Pump. It is always challenging to start a business, however we have been fortunate to have quality products and excellent employees with solid technical backgrounds. We identified three areas that we felt were most critical to the long term success of our business. We wanted to make sure the equipment we sold was properly applied; we felt it was important to provide good service to our customers; and lastly we have a passion for servicing the equipment we sell.

In trying to live up to these expectations, we have been blessed with finding qualified and dedicated employees that care about the needs of our customers. For our first eleven years in business we worked in a 2500 square foot facility where we kept acquiring more space until we were up to 7500 square feet. In 2008 we moved into a 15,000 square foot facility. In 2012 we purchased an additional 8000 square foot facility in Des Moines and in 2015 we added another 16,000 square foot facility in Sycamore, IL. This has added a great deal to our capabilities. We have added inventory and can more efficiently store it, and we installed a ten ton crane as well as other shop equipment that improves our efficiency and makes for a safer work environment.
