Job description

About Warner

We can train you on the technology. We can't train character.

Company: Warner Communications

Location: Trenton, IL

Job Title: Outside Sales Representative

Job Type: Full-Time | Hybrid | Mon-Fri

About Warner

We can train you on the technology. We can't train character.

Warner Communications has served Southern Illinois for over 60 years. We're a family-owned company — three generations deep — and we're not going anywhere.

Les Zucker helped build this company with a simple philosophy: do good work, treat people right, and take care of your customers. Our president Steve Guller still lives by it: \"Our reputation was built one handshake at a time.\"

What You'll Work With

• AI-powered gun detection for schools


• Satellite comms that work when the grid goes down


• In-building cellular systems & access control


• Two-way radios first responders stake their lives on

You'll also work with IP video surveillance systems, fleet tracking, and more — selling to businesses, schools, hospitals, and government agencies across Southern Illinois.

What You'll Do

• Create new sales opportunities among businesses and government clients


• Prepare and conduct sales presentations, product demonstrations, and proposals


• Build positive relationships with prospects, clients, and referral sources


• Support existing accounts while developing new ones


• Meet quotas by converting prospects into clients

Who Thrives Here

You don't need sales experience — we'll train you. What we can't teach is character.

You might be right for this role if you:

• Build trust naturally — and follow through


• Want to learn a real trade, not just collect a check


• Have roots in the Metro East and take pride in the community


• Are comfortable with technology (or eager to learn)


• Genuinely enjoy helping people solve problems

Warner Communications is an equal-opportunity employer. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds who are ready to contribute to a dynamic and forward-thinking team.
