  • Professional appearance and ability to build trust with homeowners.

  • Ability to identify repair versus replacement opportunities ethically and confidently.

  • Comfortable discussing memberships, system upgrades, and replacement options with customers.

  • Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.

Preferred Qualifications
  • NATE Certification (preferred but not required).

  • Experience with ServiceTitan or similar field service software.

  • Experience with high-efficiency HVAC systems and heat pumps.

  • Sales aptitude with a customer-first approach.

Compensation & Benefits
  • Top-tier pay: Up to $40/hour , depending on experience.

  • Performance bonuses and incentive opportunities.

  • Overtime available.

  • Company-provided uniforms.

  • Paid Time Off (PTO).

  • Paid holidays.

  • Health insurance benefits.

  • Ongoing training and professional development.

  • Opportunities for career advancement.
