Luther Pierre Built His Career in Miami, From FIU to Federal Sales
The Sterile Services Co. business development manager learned marketing at FIU, sales at Nova Southeastern and government contracting on the job, all without leaving South Florida.
Miami is a city of import and export, of ports and runways and deals done across the Americas. Luther Pierre works one of its quieter trades: selling to government. He is the business development manager at Sterile Services Co., a federal contractor headquartered in Miami, where he handles federal sales and the company's GSA Schedule contracts, with a focus on products.
A Panther first
Pierre's Miami story starts at Florida International University, where he earned a bachelor's degree in marketing in 2010. Campus was a training ground. He interned in FIU's athletic department marketing office, building promotions to fill the stands and visiting local businesses to bring in sponsors. He ran marketing for the Black Student Union, and as a chapter president of Alpha Phi Alpha he led the chapter's Relay for Life effort for the American Cancer Society.
He stayed close to home for graduate school, earning an MBA in sales management from Nova Southeastern University in 2014.
Learning the public side of business
That same year he became an account representative at Continental & Global Services in Miami. There he learned government buying from the inside, finding bids, aligning with compliance rules and working on contracts with the Department of Health and the City of Miami. Public contracts reward patience and precision, and the lessons stuck.
Nearly nine years at SSC
Since 2018 he has been at Sterile Services Co., a Miami company with a national reach. SSC supplies agencies with industrial, medical, office, janitorial and IT products and runs program management, IT, logistics and facilities services. In 2026, HP recognized it as an HP Amplify Impact Advocate for sustainability progress.
On SSC's team page, Pierre speaks of a supportive team and the chance to develop professionally and personally. Nearly a decade in, he is still building that career in the city where it began.
