Sales Director – Color Resin (Masterbatch or Liquid Color)

​

Location: Southeast USA (Relocation to Arlington, TX within 12 months required)

​

Are you an experienced sales leader in the color resin space—ready to take on a high-impact role with a clear path to General Manager? If you're driven, business-savvy, and passionate about delivering color solutions to the plastics industry, this opportunity could be exactly what you're looking for.

​

Our client, a top player in the color and additive masterbatch space, is looking for a Sales Director with deep expertise in selling color resin. This role is ideal for someone ready to take on a leadership path, with plans to relocate to Arlington, TX within a year and step into the General Manager role at their flagship facility.

​

What makes this role different:

• This is a growth role with succession in mind—you’ll lead sales now and prepare to run the plant as GM in the near future.
• You can be based anywhere in the Southeast initially, as long as you're willing to relocate to Arlington, TX within a year.
• You’ll work with innovative, high-quality products that support clients across packaging, automotive, consumer goods, and more.

​

Must-haves:

• Proven experience selling color resin—ideally in masterbatch color, but liquid color resin experience will also be considered
• Strong business background—a previous role as a plant manager, business unit manager, or similar is highly preferred
• A commercial mindset and a hunter mentality—driven to open doors and close deals
• Deep knowledge of plastics processing methods (injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, thermoforming, etc.)
• Willingness to travel up to 50% and relocate to Arlington, TX within 12 months

​

Your background likely includes:

• 8+ years in technical B2B sales, preferably in colorants, additives, or compounding
• A bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, Chemical Engineering, Polymer Science, or a related field
• Strong CRM and Microsoft Office skills
• A track record of consistently hitting or exceeding targets

​

In return, you’ll get:

• A competitive base salary with performance-based bonuses
• Comprehensive benefits: health, dental, vision, and 401(k) with company match
• Professional development and the opportunity to grow into a senior leadership role
• The chance to shape the future of a key facility and make a real impact
