The Field Sales Director II, Sales Growth Analytics & Field Performance is a leader responsible for driving revenue growth in Union Supply Group’s Commissary Wholesale business by aligning field sales execution, commercial strategy, and advanced analytics. This role converts sales, pipeline, contract, and margin data into actionable priorities that improve seller effectiveness, speed‑to‑sale, off‑contract distribution, and new market growth.

Partnering closely with Sales, Enablement, Pricing, Finance, and Operations, the Director standardizes performance planning and execution across state DOC, Federal BOP, and emerging markets. Success is measured by revenue attainment, pipeline health, forecast accuracy, margin discipline, contract retention, and field team development.

  • Pipeline signals and deal velocity
  • Historical performance and seasonality
  • Contract renewal timelines and net‑new opportunity flow
• Implement forecast models that reconcile bottom‑up seller and territory inputs with top‑down analytical projections.
• Establish forecast accuracy discipline by defining error thresholds, identifying variance drivers, and driving corrective actions with Sales and Finance leadership.
• Support territory planning, capacity modeling, and growth target setting aligned to strategic priorities and market opportunity.

Pipeline Health & Sales Performance Management

• Create and maintain a pipeline inspection framework focused on:
  • Coverage, quality, velocity, aging, and stage hygiene
  • Clear stage‑exit criteria and risk signals
• Publish seller, territory, and team scorecards that balance:
  • Outcomes (revenue, win rate, margin, contract retention)
  • Leading indicators (meetings, proposals, distribution gains, activity mix)
• Identify stalled deals, at‑risk contracts, and coachable moments; operationalize deal and pipeline reviews with field leadership and Enablement.
• Support field sales leaders through:
  • Ride‑a‑longs and live account coaching
  • Data‑driven territory reviews
  • Performance‑based development plans

• Own the sales analytics technology stack, including:
  • Salesforce reporting and CRM data structures
