Job description

Project Consultant (Residential Construction)

Company Overview

NEPA Builders, Inc. is a residential construction and remodeling company based in Blakely, PA and serving homeowners across Northeast Pennsylvania. We specialize in custom homes and high-quality renovations, with a reputation built on integrity, craftsmanship, and doing right by our clients and our team.

We are a stable, growing company where people come to build long-term careers. Our team culture is collaborative and professional, and we value trust, accountability, and clear communication in everything we do.

The Opportunity

We are hiring a Project Consultant to own the front-end of our residential projects — from first conversation to signed contract and clean handoff to production. This is a career role for a construction-savvy professional who wants to guide homeowners through important decisions, not just "close the deal."

You will work with qualified, inbound leads (no cold calling), use a structured consultative process, and collaborate closely with estimating and production so projects are sold correctly and set up to succeed. Top performers in this role earn $125,000–$200,000+ per year with full benefits.

What You'll Do

• Lead homeowners through a structured, consultative sales process from initial inquiry to signed agreement.
• Conduct in-home and office consultations to clarify scope, design direction, timeline, and investment level.
• Develop and present clear, accurate project proposals that align client expectations with our build process and budget.
• Collaborate with project managers, estimating, and production to ensure projects are sold profitably and set up for smooth execution.
• Manage a pipeline of opportunities with strong organization, timely follow-up, and consistent communication.

What Success Looks Like

• Clients consistently report feeling guided, informed, and respected — never pressured — throughout the process.
• You reliably convert qualified opportunities into signed, well-scoped projects at a rate that supports annual earnings of $125,000–$200,000.
• Projects you sell hit margin targets, experience minimal scope creep, and transition smoothly into production with few surprises.
• Production teams trust your proposals and handoffs, and you become a go-to advisor for both homeowners and internal teammates.

What We're Looking For

• Experience in residential construction or remodeling with the ability to discuss how homes are built in clear, client-friendly language.
• Background in consultative, relationship-based sales where you’ve successfully asked for commitment and closed projects or services.
• High level of ownership, accountability, and follow-through, with strong organization and communication skills.
• A long-term mindset — you’re looking for a professional home, want to contribute to a team, and care about doing the right thing for clients.

Compensation And Benefits

• Compensation: $125,000–$200,000 per year, based on performance.
• Benefits: Paid time off, 401(k), and health insurance.
• Employment type: Full-time.
• Work hours: 8-hour workdays, no overtime expected.
