Since 1950, Clark Pest Control has made the lives of people throughout California and northwestern Nevada - pest-free, worry-free and just plain better.

Responsibilities
We are seeking a detail-oriented and analytical WDO Sales Representative to inspect building structures (residential and commercial) and their surrounding environments for wood destroying organisms that may be causing damage to the wood structure of the building. The Pest Control industry is not exactly what it may seem. Pest Control is more of a maintenance program to ensure that our customers don't suffer from reoccurring pest activity.

What You'll Do
  • Physically inspecting a variety of commercial and residential structures to determine the presence of pests, fungi (dry-rot), termites, and other wood destroying organisms; calculating the severity of infestations and the degree of structural damage.
  • Physically inspecting a variety of commercial and residential structures to determine the presence of rodents and entry ways into the structure, calculating the severity of infestations and the degree of damage to products, insulation, and entry points as it relates to the structure.
  • Responsible for estimating and selling insulation jobs for both residential and commercial accounts. Will measure and calculate insulation estimates for removal and installation.
  • Examining attics and sub areas when available and accessible.
  • Writing reports which include findings and recommendations using the current version of Clark Pest Control's WDO Code Book (handwriting is to be legible and orderly).
  • Authoring notes, findings, and recommendations when the code book is not specific to an uncommon situation.
  • Creating diagrams and graphs indicating the type, degree and location of infestations.
  • Interfacing directly with homeowners, home buyers and their agents regarding the work to be accomplished.
  • Determining the costs, estimating the crew time and scheduling work.
  • Coordinating with the crewperson to ensure that jobs are done legally, professionally, and within specifications.
  • Receiving and accounting for company funds.
  • Maintain company issued equipment and vehicle in a clean condition at all times.

What's In It for You?
  • Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
  • Life and AD&D Insurance, Voluntary Term Life and AD&D Insurance
  • Employee Assistance Plan
  • 401(k) Plan with Company Match
  • Pet Insurance
  • Company issued vehicle and gas card. Take your company car home with you!
  • Paid on the job training, including paid pest license and license renewal
  • Advancement opportunities. We promote from within!
  • First-year earning range $75,000 - $100,000+ based on performance.

Our sales compensation plans are designed to reward strong results. While earnings beyond the stated range are not guaranteed, top-performing Sales Representatives in the area frequently earn $125,000 or more annually through commissions and incentives.
Actual earnings may vary based on individual performance, territory, and business conditions.
