Job Description

Sales & Estimating Specialist
Energy Center-Manhattan Pool | Manhattan, KS
Full-Time | In-Person | $24-$27 per hour, depending on experience

About the Role

Energy Center-Manhattan Pool has served Manhattan and the surrounding communities for more than 20 years. We help homeowners create comfortable, enjoyable spaces with swimming pools, spas, fireplaces and stoves, grills and smokers, and outdoor living products.

We are looking for a Sales & Estimating Specialist to help customers turn their ideas into well-planned projects. This role combines customer relationship management, sales, estimating, follow-up, and project coordination.

Our approach is simple: understand the customer, provide the right solution, prepare an accurate estimate, and follow through. We are looking for someone who enjoys building relationships and understands that strong sales come from excellent service and consistent follow-up.

What You'll Do

• Meet with customers to understand their needs, project goals, preferences, and budget.
• Build strong customer relationships through professional and responsive communication.
• Prepare accurate estimates, proposals, and pricing for customer projects.
• Explain product options, pricing, project considerations, and next steps.
• Follow up with leads and customers by phone, email, and other appropriate channels.
• Conduct outbound calls and work with company-provided leads to develop sales opportunities.
• Maintain accurate customer and opportunity information in the CRM.
• Manage your sales pipeline and complete follow-ups, estimates, and customer commitments on time.
• Work with the team to ensure a smooth transition from the sale to project execution.
• Develop knowledge of our products, installation processes, and home-improvement services.

What We're Looking For

• Customer service, sales, estimating, quoting, or related experience.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Excellent listening and relationship-building skills.
• Strong organization and attention to detail.
• Ability to manage multiple customers and opportunities while staying on top of follow-up.
• Comfortable learning products, pricing, and project requirements.
• Ability to use a CRM to document customer interactions and manage opportunities.
• Self-motivated and able to work independently while contributing to a team.

Experience in construction, remodeling, home improvement, building materials, landscaping, outdoor living, pools, spas, kitchens and baths, or another project-based industry is a plus.

Construction or home-improvement estimating experience is especially valuable, but training is provided for the right candidate.

How Success Is Measured

Success in this role goes beyond closing sales. We expect you to:

• Respond to customers promptly.
• Prepare accurate estimates on time.
• Maintain consistent follow-up.
• Keep CRM records current and organized.
• Manage a healthy sales pipeline.
• Convert qualified opportunities into sales.
• Provide a positive customer experience.
• Work effectively with the team through project handoff.

Compensation & Benefits

• $24-$27 per hour, depending on experience
• Hourly compensation with no individual commission requirement
• Company-provided leads
• Training and professional development
• Career advancement opportunities
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Simple 401(k) with 3.5% company matching
• Pension plan
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Employee discount on company products
• Company-sponsored events
• Employee recognition program

Why Join Energy Center-Manhattan Pool?

We are a family-oriented, team-focused company with a friendly and supportive work environment. We value people who take ownership of their work, continue learning, and want to build a long-term career.

You'll receive training on our products, installation processes, estimating, and sales approach, along with opportunities for continued learning and professional development.

How to Apply

If you have experience in sales, customer service, estimating, construction, remodeling, or another project-based industry, we'd like to hear from you.

Please submit your resume and tell us briefly about your experience working with customers, preparing estimates or quotes, or managing sales opportunities.
