What you’ll do

We’re seeking an aspiring Sales Professional who is hungry, mechanically inclined, and thrives on going after new business. This role is for someone who has the hustle, ambition, and work ethic to build new customer relationships, uncover opportunities, and win work. Importantly, this position does not require prior sales experience. We care more about your behaviors, characteristics, and ability than we do your specific experience. Our best salespeople have come from a wide range of backgrounds, but they all share common attributes: tenacity, persistence, resilience, and a mechanical inclination. The right person is competitive, self-motivated, and excited to grow their territory by turning opportunities into results, and has the ambition to build a meaningful career both personally and financially.

• Assist in pricing and bid preparation

• Collaborate with internal teams to complete projects on time and within budget
