Aquaculture Project Manager / Sales (Mid-Level)

Job Details

As IAS continues to grow, we are seeking a skilled professional with strong aquaculture knowledge and technical project management capability—someone who can manage complex system projects while supporting sales efforts through informed technical consultation.

Position Overview

The Aquaculture Project Manager / Sales (Mid-Level) is primarily responsible for overseeing aquaculture system projects from initial scoping through delivery. This includes coordinating technical documentation, ensuring project milestones are met, and serving as a point of contact between customers and internal teams.

A secondary but important component of this role is supporting sales activities by preparing quotes, assisting with system design clarifications, and guiding customers through equipment selection.

This role requires a blend of aquaculture expertise, project management capabilities, and technical knowledge of water filtration, pumping, and disinfection technologies.

• Track project progress, identify risks or issues, and communicate timely updates to internal stakeholders and customers.
• Maintain and organize comprehensive project documentation including BOMs, drawings, quotes, revision records, and installation notes.
• Support installation planning, system commissioning logistics, and post-delivery technical assistance as needed.
• Ensure all project communication programs are maintained such as CRM entries, emails, tasks, and schedules—updated, accurate, and accessible.

Sales Support (Secondary Focus)
 

• Assist in qualifying incoming leads by gathering technical details, project goals, and system requirements.
• Prepare technical quotes, cost estimates, and system recommendations.
• Maintain CRM accuracy by recording customer interactions, follow-ups, and sales progression.
• Support virtual or on-site customer meetings to explain system functionality or project requirements.
