Senior Account Executive

About the Role

Cincinnati is home base—and a core market for IPS.

We’re looking for a Sales Executive to expand, protect, and strategically grow our established Cincinnati presence. This role is ideal for a seasoned life-safety and security sales professional who already understands the Cincinnati market landscape, values long-term relationships, and knows how to win complex, high-trust business.

This is not a “build from scratch” role. This is a scale, deepen, and out-perform role—focused on key accounts, high-value opportunities, and continued market leadership across fire alarm and integrated security solutions.

What You’ll Do

Strategic Market Growth & Relationship Leadership

• Drive continued growth in IPS’s established Cincinnati market, focusing on both new business and expansion of existing relationships.

• Strengthen and grow partnerships with end users, GCs, electrical contractors, consultants, property managers, and AHJs.

• Identify strategic opportunities across service, retrofit, system upgrades, and new construction.

• Act as a trusted advisor, helping customers solve complex life-safety and security challenges.

Business Development & Sales Execution

• Manage the full sales lifecycle—from opportunity identification through close.

• Develop tailored solutions for fire alarm, access control, video surveillance, and integrated security systems.

• Collaborate closely with IPS engineering, service, and project teams to ensure accurate, competitive, and executable proposals.

• Maintain pipeline activity, forecasting, and reporting using IPS CRM tools.

Brand Stewardship & Internal Collaboration

• Represent IPS as a market leader in Cincinnati through professionalism, integrity, and technical credibility.

• Partner with leadership and operations to ensure seamless transition from sale to delivery.

• Provide insight into local market trends, competitors, and customer needs to help guide strategy.
