  • Excellent with people and able to build trust quickly
  • Sales-minded and motivated to turn qualified leads into customers without using high-pressure tactics
  • Organized, responsive, and committed to following up
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills
  • Detail-oriented with the ability to produce accurate estimates
  • Professional, dependable, and committed to doing right by the customer and the company
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
  • Fluent in English and legally authorized to work in the U.S.
What You’ll Get:
  • Year-round, consistent opportunities
  • Strong office and operations support
  • Established leads and opportunities to help grow the business
  • A team culture built on compassion, trust, and professionalism
  • The opportunity to play a key role in building TruBlue Serving North County San Diego
