  • Identify system and process gaps affecting dealer performance and lead resolution initiatives in collaboration with IT and Sales Ops.
  • Provide hands-on operational training to new and existing dealers, including process walkthroughs, reporting tools, and best practices.

    • 4. Network Growth & Development

  • Support network expansion by identifying white space opportunities and assisting in vetting new dealer candidates.
  • Assist in territory planning, dealer assignments, and channel realignment efforts aligned with business growth goals.
  • Conduct due diligence on potential new dealers / commercial partners and participate in the onboarding of newly signed partners.

    • 5. Communication, Training & Engagement

  • Maintain clear and consistent communication with the dealer network regarding operational updates, programs, systems changes, and deadlines.
  • Collaborate Channel and training teams to deploy dealer-facing education programs on sales processes, service standards, and product launches.
  • Plan and facilitate online network training with a focus on operational excellence.

    • Qualifications Education

  • Bachelor's degree in business administration, Operations, Agricultural Business, or a related field.

  • Deep understanding of dealer business models in ag and powersports (retail, service, aftermarket, and rental operations).
  • Strong analytical and data interpretation skills with experience in dashboards and reporting (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Excel).
  • Proficiency with CRM systems, dealer portals, and ERPs relevant to dealer networks.
  • Excellent project management and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Strong written and verbal communication; ability to present operational content to dealers and executives alike.
  • Willingness to travel up to 25–30%, including visits to dealer locations, regional events, and trade shows.
