Customer Service & Sales Representative - Korman Signs

Korman Signs has been part of the Richmond community since 1975, growing from a small start-up into one of the nation's leading manufacturers of traffic safety products. For more than 50 years, we've built our reputation on quality, innovation, and integrity-values that continue to guide us today. Still family-operated, Korman Signs combines state-of-the-art technology with hands-on expertise to deliver everything from small custom signs to large-scale interstate projects. Our customers-contractors, public works crews, and DOTs-count on us for dependable products and responsive service, and we take pride in helping keep America's roads safe. As an employer, we offer the stability of a long-established company with the team-oriented culture of a family business, where every role contributes to our shared success.

The Role

We're seeking a Customer Service and Sales Representative who is reliable, detail-oriented, and enjoys working with people.
