Your job is to build real relationships, become the go-to environmental testing expert in your market, and close business.
  • Own and grow your Inland Empire territory through daily face-to-face outreach

  • Comfortable with cold prospecting, consistent follow-up, and independently closing deals without hand-holding
  • Resilient and professional when handling rejection, staying focused and motivated by results
  • Self-directed, able to manage your own schedule and prioritize effectively
  • Hold a valid driver's license and have reliable transportation

Nice to have:

  • Background in environmental services, construction, real estate, or restoration industries
