Who We're Looking For

We’re looking for someone with entrepreneurial drive without the need for an entrepreneurial title. You may have even considered owning a business someday. You want autonomy, responsibility, growth, and financial upside, but you’d rather spend your energy building relationships and generating revenue than managing technicians, billing customers, buying equipment, processing payroll, or overseeing day-to-day restoration operations.

You’ll probably thrive here if you have:

• A natural ability to connect with people
• Confidence walking into unfamiliar environments
• Comfort starting conversations with people you’ve never met
• High energy and prefer being in the field rather than sitting behind a desk
• Competitiveness with yourself and others
• Enjoyment of seeing measurable results from your effort
• Persistence without becoming pushy
• Genuine relationship-building skills rather than simply collecting contacts
• Ownership of your results
• Strong organization as your network grows
• Coachability and a willingness to implement feedback
• Self-motivation without needing constant supervision
• Desire for earning potential to grow with your production
• Patience to build something substantial instead of chasing quick wins

Sales experience is valuable, but hunger, discipline, confidence, curiosity, resilience, and coachability matter even more. Restoration experience is not required; the company can teach you the industry, process, and strategy.
