• Offer solutions with our products in packaging, automation, janitorial, safety, and beyond
• Represent the Ernest brand with professionalism and personality

What You’ll Get

• Uncapped earnings: Base salary + 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.
• Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), PTO
• 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
• Hunter mentality with a knack for face-to-face engagement
• Resilience, positivity, and an entrepreneurial gritty spirit

We’re not your typical company—and we don’t want typical salespeople. We want someone bold, curious, driven, and ready to grow something extraordinary.Ifthisisyou,let'sdothis.Unboxyourpotentialbymovingpackagingforward—withErnest.
