Company Description

GIT Coatings (Graphite Innovation & Technologies Inc.) is a Canadian company specializing in sustainable graphene-based hull and propeller coatings for the maritime industry. The organization focuses on delivering environmentally friendly, efficient, and cost-effective solutions that support ship owners in meeting their sustainability and performance objectives. By enhancing vessel efficiency, GIT Coatings helps reduce emissions to both air and water, contributing to cleaner oceans and lower operational footprints.

Role Description To be clear: we are strictly looking for a heavy-hitting Sales professional.

This position is for you only if you have experience selling value, offering solutions to your customers, not just a product.

If you are a sales-driven leader who embraces the challenge of delivering innovative solutions to a traditional industry like marine transportation, your place is with us.

We need someone who truly understands how commercial decisions are made in shipping across shipowners, technical managers, charterers, and shipyards. You should intimately understand fleet decision cycles, drydock planning, and how real commercial value is built around operational performance, fuel efficiency, and decarbonization.

This position is designed to elevate our sales function. You will create and execute your own regional sales strategy,



fully supported by a dedicated team providing market intelligence, real-time data, and robust marketing backup to facilitate your success.

Key Responsibilities & Expectations

- Sales DNA: Highly driven by challenges and results.
- Strategic Insight: Leverage deep industry experience to guide the commercial team toward strategic goals.
- Pipeline Management: Maintain a clear focus on short-, mid-, and long-term sales objectives.
- Robust Network: Possess strong, multi-location relationships and market knowledge across the shipping industry.
- Technical Influence: Bring proven technical knowledge and established relationships with technical decision-makers.
- Relationship Catalyst: Actively introduce and foster commercial conversations between our team and your maritime network.

Qualifications

- Strong commercial mindset with a track record of driving revenue.
- Exceptional communicator capable of building lasting corporate relationships.
- Deep technical understanding of ships, vessels, and marine operations.
- Familiarity with operational performance metrics (KPIs) and financial value flows in shipping.
- Solid understanding of fuel efficiency and decarbonization trends in marine transit

If you can capitalize on your experience and credibility to engage with shipowners and operators at a strategic level, we would love to connect. Feel free to reach out directly—or share this with someone who fits the bill. Who comes to mind?
