Account Executive

Warehouse Direct Sales Executive Opportunity

Warehouse Direct isn't just a supplier; we are the Midwest's leading provider for Integrated Workplace Productivity. Since 1979, we've grown into a $100M+ industry leader by treating businesses like partners. We provide over 100,000 products to help businesses run smoothly, and we're looking for a new "starter" to join our winning sales culture in Des Plaines.

The "Hunter" Wanted

Are you the person who loves winning? We are looking for an Entry-Level Account Executive with a high "Sales IQ" and a competitive engine. This isn't a "sit-and-wait" role. You will be a pure hunter, responsible for scouting new territory, winning the business, and then coaching those clients through a long-term relationship.

• Hybrid Flexibility: 3 days in the office for team collaboration; 2 days remote to execute your game plan.
• Training: Sales training provided, no previous experience required.
• The Payoff: A solid base salary to get you started, plus uncapped commissions if you put up the numbers, there is no limit to what you can earn.

Responsibilities

• Execute the Blitz: Aggressively prospect for new business through phone outreach and local territory "boots on the ground" visits.
• Close the Deal: Lead one-on-one meetings with business owners to present solutions that save them time and money.
• Relationship Management: Once you win the account, you own it. You are the MVP for your clients, managing their needs for the life of the relationship.
• Internal Teamwork: Coordinate with our logistics and support teams to ensure your clients get world-class service every time.

Qualifications

• Communication: You can talk to anyone, from the loading dock to the C-suite.
• Mobility: A clean driving record and reliable transportation are required for local travel.
• Internal Drive: You are self-motivated and don't need a coach to tell you when it's time to practice or perform.

Preferred Qualifications

• Sports Minded: Experience in organized sports, coaching, or a highly competitive environment. We value the discipline and resilience that comes from the field.
• Sales Instinct: Previous sales experience (retail, internships, or door-to-door) is a plus, but we will train the right attitude.

Benefits

• Uncapped Commission: Your paycheck is a direct reflection of your hustle.
• Full Health Suite: Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance.
• Protection: Company-paid Life Insurance, Short-Term Disability, and Identity Theft Protection.
• The Extras: Accident, Critical Illness, and Hospital Indemnity Insurance.
• Future Planning: 401(k) and Paid Time Off (PTO) + Paid Holidays.
• Recognition: Monthly and annual programs to reward the top performers on the leaderboard
