About Tew & Taylor

Tew & Taylor is a Florida-based private provider of building inspections, plan review, and permitting support. We partner with contractors, developers, and municipalities to remove friction from the construction process and accelerate project delivery.

The Role

We are hiring a Sales Director to lead new business development for our single-trade inspections and permitting offering.

You will personally source, close, and grow contractor accounts while helping define the go-to-market strategy, messaging, and sales process as the business scales. This is not a legacy sales organization. You will help build it.

Key Responsibilities

• Own revenue growth for the single-trade inspections and permitting product
• Prospect, qualify, and close new contractor accounts
• Sell recurring inspection, permitting, and platform-based services
• Expand accounts through technician count, jurisdiction coverage, and usage
• Build and manage a disciplined sales pipeline and forecast
• Provide feedback to leadership on pricing, packaging, and product-market fit
• Help define scalable sales processes and playbooks
• Represent Tew & Taylor with contractors, partners, and industry stakeholders

Who This Role Is For

This role is a strong fit if you:

• Are a proven sales leader with a track record of closing complex B2B deals
• Have sold services or SaaS-like solutions to construction contractors
• Are comfortable selling an operational, compliance-driven product
• Want ownership over a product line, not just a territory
• Can operate independently with minimal structure

This role is not a fit if you:

• Prefer account management over new business development
• Rely on inbound leads to hit quota
• Are looking for a large team or established sales infrastructure on day one

Compensation & Incentives

• Base Salary: $85,000 - $115,000 based on experience and track record
• Commission: 10% of gross revenue generated by accounts you originate
• Commission Duration: Paid for 12 months from each customer’s contract start
• Commission Payment Frequency: Quarterly, based on collected revenue from your accounts
• Commission Cap: None

Qualifications

• 3+ years of B2B sales experience (services or construction-adjacent preferred)
• Demonstrated ability to source and close new business independently
• Experience selling to contractors, trades, or construction-related businesses strongly preferred
• Strong negotiation, communication, and forecasting skills
• CRM proficiency required
• Comfort operating in a fast-growing, entrepreneurial environment

Why Join Tew & Taylor

• Ownership over a high-growth product line
• Competitive base with aggressive upside
• Clear path to build and eventually lead a larger sales function
• Direct access to company leadership and strategic decision-making
• Opportunity to shape a category in a fragmented market
