  • Career advancement opportunities within a leading national waste services company

Qualifications:

  • 2+ years of outside sales or B2B sales experience preferred
  • Experience in waste management, environmental services, industrial services, or special waste sales strongly preferred
  • Knowledge of landfill operations, waste profiling, or environmental regulations is a plus
  • Strong communication, negotiation, and organizational skills
  • Self-motivated with the ability to manage a sales territory and meet performance targets
  • Comfortable with cold calling, technical sales conversations, and solution-based selling
  • Experience with CRM systems (ARES or similar)
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation

Successful candidates thrive in an environment focused on operational excellence, safety, and accountability. We offer excellent family benefits, including medical, dental, vision, flexible spending account, long-term disability, life insurance, 401(k) retirement, and unlimited opportunities to "Connect with Your Future."
