• Uncapped earnings: Base salary + 15% commission + bonuses + car allowance
• Residual income from your accounts (even years down the line). High impact, high reward. $200k–$400k isn’t a stretch, it’s the standard for our best.
• Culture that clicks: Fun, supportive, driven, we root for each other
• Legacy with lift: 75+ years of innovation, and we’re still growing

What We’re Looking For

• Passion for sales and relationship building
• Previous experience in outside sales is required
• Hunter mentality with a knack for face-to-face engagement
• Resilience, positivity, and an entrepreneurial gritty spirit
