Account Specialist

We are seeking an experienced and motivated Account Specialist with a strong background in commercial sales to join our growing team. This role goes beyond traditional product sales—you’ll be building lasting partnerships with contractors, builders, architects, and project managers to bring large-scale projects from concept to completion.

The ideal candidate understands the complexities of commercial accounts, from blueprint take-offs and estimating to coordinating multi-phase installations across job sites. You’ll be responsible for managing the full sales cycle: prospecting new accounts, nurturing relationships with decision-makers, providing accurate and timely proposals, and ensuring projects are executed smoothly and on schedule.

This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives on relationship-driven sales, has a strong understanding of construction and commercial project needs, and enjoys working in a fast-paced environment where organization, follow-through, and attention to detail make all the difference.
