Strategic Sales Specialist

ADP

ADP is hiring a Sales Representative for our ADP Comprehensive Services® business.

ADP Comprehensive Services provides tailored HR, payroll, and benefits outsourcing, combining expert guidance with the ADP Workforce Now® technology platform. It serves as a dedicated partner to handle compliance, tax filing, talent management, and people benefits, aimed at reducing administrative burdens for small- to mid-market businesses.

As a Sales Representative, you will close new business within a defined territory and represent one of the most trusted HR brands in the world. You'll join a high-performing team, receive award-winning training, and help organizations solve real-world HR challenges -- from compliance to employee engagement -- using ADP's industry-leading solutions.

If you're motivated, consultative, competitive, and excited about uncapped earning potential, this is your opportunity.

What You'll Do: Responsibilities

Grow Our Business While Growing Your Career

  • Own a defined, protected territory and execute a top-down sales strategy to win new clients.

  • Drive the full sales cycle -- prospecting, qualifying, presenting, negotiating, and closing.

Turn Prospects into Loyal, Referring Clients

  • Assess business needs and recommend the right ADP solutions across HR, payroll, benefits, and talent management.

  • Utilize multi-channel prospecting techniques to engage decision-makers and secure qualified appointments.

Leverage the Power of the ADP Network

  • Collaborate with internal ADP partners to cross-sell and expand within current accounts.

Be a Trusted Advisor

  • Act as a consultative partner who understands client challenges and connects them to meaningful outcomes.

  • Represent ADP with professionalism, integrity, and solutions that improve employee experience.

What You Need to Succeed: Required Qualifications

  • Adaptability & Emotional Intelligence -- Ability to adjust to changing sales situations while demonstrating empathy, awareness, and rapport-building.

  • Critical Thinking & Business Acumen -- Understand business drivers and translate them into actionable solutions.

  • Strong Communication & Persuasion -- Deliver compelling, confident messaging to diverse stakeholders.

  • Grit & Resilience -- Stay motivated, persistent, and growth-oriented in a competitive environment.

  • Sales Execution & Territory Management -- Execute consistently with a structured approach to prospecting, pipeline management, and closing.

  • Modern Selling Skills -- Combine sales technology, AI-driven tools, and data insights to drive pipelines and revenue.

Preferred Qualifications

  • 4+ years of full-cycle, quota carrying sales experience in a results-driven environment.

  • Proven success in consultative or solution-based selling.

You'll Love Working Here Because You Can:

  • Be yourself in a culture that values equity, inclusion, and belonging and creates a safe space for diverse perspectives and insights.

  • Belong by joining one of our Business Resource Groups where you can connect globally with networks and allies who share common interests and experiences.

  • Grow your career in an agile, dynamic environment with plenty of opportunities to progress.

  • Continuously learn through ongoing training, development, and mentorship opportunities.

  • Be your healthiest. Best-in-class benefits start on Day 1 because healthy associates are happy ones.

  • Focus on your mental health and well-being. We're here to provide exceptional service to our clients, and none of that happens without each of us taking care of ourselves and being there for one another.

  • Join a company committed to giving back and generating a lasting, positive impact upon the communities in which we work and live.

  • Get paid to pay it forward. Company-paid time off for volunteering for causes you care about.
