• Experience using CRM, estimating, project management, and Microsoft Office applications.
• Proven ability to manage multiple priorities across sales, operations, estimating, and project execution.
• Experience supporting larger commercial or enterprise customers is preferred, particularly in logistics, industrial, healthcare, government, or multi-location environments.
• Existing relationships with regional contractors, end users, or facility management contacts are a plus.

Preferred Certifications / Licensing

Any of the following would be beneficial:
