Softbox Systems

The “Total Package” for a Critical Sales Role

ROLE FILLED:
West Coast Account Director
Client: Softbox Systems – Global leader in high-performance Cold Chain packaging solutions

THE CLIENT’S NEED:
When their long-standing Sales Director moved on, Softbox Systems needed a seasoned hunter—someone with deep expertise in temperature-controlled packaging, strong industry connections, and the drive to grow business on the West Coast. Ideally, the person would also be local to the San Francisco area and fit within a defined compensation range.


THEIR SEARCH CHALLENGES:
This wasn’t just a sales role—it required:

  • Niche industry experience

  • A hunter mentality

  • A strong regional presence

  • The right cultural and compensation fit

Finding a candidate who checked every box was no small task.


OUR TALENT DELIVERY SOLUTION:
Thanks to a targeted cold call, our team connected with a standout sales leader who brought:

  • Proven Cold Chain packaging experience

  • A track record of building business in the region

  • The drive and polish to represent Softbox on the front lines

All of this was delivered in under three weeks.

RESULT:
A seamless transition and a top-performing Account Director who’s already making an impact in a key territory.
