Job Type: Full-Time

Compensation:

$45,000 base salary + 8-12% commission on every sale, uncapped

We're looking for a driven Sales Representative to grow our commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning business across the Atlanta market. This is a field sales role built for someone who likes getting out, meeting people face to face, and closing business - with uncapped commission on top of a strong base.

Why This Industry

• This isn't a discretionary purchase - kitchen exhaust cleaning is required by fire code (NFPA 96) and mandated by insurance carriers for every commercial kitchen. Restaurants don't get to skip it.
• Because it's required, not optional, the market holds up even when the economy softens
• It's a recurring service - accounts you close typically need cleanings on an ongoing schedule, which means the relationships (and commission opportunities) keep paying off
• Every restaurant, hospital, school, and commercial kitchen in Atlanta is a potential customer - the addressable market is enormous and largely untapped
• Commission is uncapped and paid on every sale, so your income grows directly with your effort

What You'll Do

• Generate new business across the Atlanta market through outbound prospecting
• Get out in the field - walk into restaurants and commercial kitchens to introduce yourself and pitch our services
• Set up and run meetings with owners, GMs, and facilities managers
• Build and work a list of contacts, following up consistently to move deals forward
• Manage your own pipeline from first contact through signed contract
• Educate prospects on the compliance requirement and the value/risk of not staying current
• Hand off new accounts cleanly to our operations team for onboarding

What We're Looking For

• A self-starter who's comfortable with face-to-face, in-person selling (cold walk-ins included)
• Strong communicator who can build rapport quickly and handle objections
• Competitive, resilient, and motivated by uncapped earning potential
• Prior outside sales or B2B sales experience preferred
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
• Comfortable managing your own schedule and pipeline with minimal oversight

Compensation & Perks

• $45,000 base salary
• 8-12% commission on every sale, uncapped
• Year 1 potential earnings: $75,000-$85,000+
• Year 2+ potential earnings: $100,000+
• Company gas card
• Company laptop and cell phone provided
• Room for growth within the company
