Project Sales Representative

Mechanical Systems Company LLC, a fully licensed Mechanical and Plumbing contractor who focuses on working with commercial and industrial customers, is looking for a candidate with the right mix of technical and interpersonal skills.

We are currently looking for a Project Sales Representative who loves to engage with people and build customer relationships. This is a business growth opportunity, not to fill an existing position. The hired candidate will be required to generate sales in addition to and complementary to our existing sales.

In this position, you will be meeting with property management teams, business owners, and decision-makers. You will need to figure out how to get past the gatekeepers to those decision-makers.

You will be developing relationships that will open doors for future business. It is a SLOW SALES CYCLE and requires exceptional relationship-building skills. If you have not worked in this type of position before, it will be extremely challenging for you.

This is not a job you get into for 2 -3 years before moving on. This position began to bear fruit at that time. If you feel you have the skills and are in for the long haul, we'd like to hear from you!

The position offers great pay and benefits, job security, an environment based on growth and personal development, great peer and supporting staff, and management who "gets it." Your ability to master the skills required for this position can potentially open many new career options across various business units.
