Sales & Marketing Manager

Pacific Rubber
San Carlos, CA

At Pacific Rubber & Packing, precision matters — in how products are made, how quality is maintained, and how customers are supported.

For over 45 years, we’ve partnered with companies operating in some of the most demanding environments in the world, from semiconductor manufacturing to medical and life science applications. Today, we’re continuing to evolve, supporting new infrastructure where cleanliness, reliability, and consistency are critical.

We’re looking for a Sales & Marketing Manager to help lead that evolution.

What this role is about

  • This is a hands‑on role for someone who enjoys being close to the work — leading sales efforts, supporting customers, and building structure that helps teams perform better over time.
  • You’ll work closely with the President, collaborate across manufacturing and quality teams, and help shape how we engage customers today and in the future.

You’ll likely enjoy this role if you:

  • Like turning technical capability into clear customer value
  • Are comfortable leading while still being directly involved
  • Enjoy working across teams with different perspectives
  • Want responsibility, ownership, and room to grow your impact

What you’ll do:

  • Lead and support a sales team serving technical and manufacturing‑driven customers
  • Engage directly with customers and strategic accounts
  • Help shape how we go to market — from messaging to execution
  • Work closely with manufacturing, quality, and operations to align expectations and outcomes

Background & experience

  • You’ve worked in technical, industrial, or manufacturing environments and have taken ownership of sales outcomes. You may have managed people, programs, or major accounts, and you’re comfortable navigating complex customer organizations.
  • Formal education is helpful but not required. What matters most is judgment, credibility, and the ability to follow through.

Why this role

  • This position is designed to grow with the business. The right person will help shape not just results, but how the commercial organization operates over time.

Experience & Education

  • 6–12+ years of experience in B2B sales, sales management, or commercial leadership within a technical, industrial, or manufacturing environment
  • Experience managing people, programs, or major accounts with increasing scope and responsibility
  • Demonstrated success navigating complex sales cycles involving technical and operational stakeholders
  • Experience improving or building sales processes, account strategies, or team structure
  • Comfort operating in a hands‑on role while contributing to strategic planning and execution
  • Prior experience in a founder‑led, privately held, or growth‑stage company is beneficial

What We Offer

  • This role offers competitive annual compensation aligned with experience and scope, including base salary typically ranging from $180,000–$195,000, plus performance‑based incentives.
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company matching
  • 9 paid holidays plus paid time off
  • Work-Life Balance Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Stable, full‑time employment in a safety‑focused, process‑driven environment
  • Relevant industry backgrounds may include advanced manufacturing, semiconductor equipment, data center infrastructure, medical devices, pharma/biopharma equipment, or life sciences instrumentation.

This position is at‑will, meaning either you or Pacific Rubber & Packing may end employment at any time, with or without cause or notice, consistent with applicable law.
