Sales Director

About Elk Horn Painting I'm Hunter, the CEO of Elk Horn Painting – where we hire TOP performers. We understand that the best people out there are looking for the very best opportunities. It’s more than money or a title. You're not looking for just some job; you’re looking for something special, something different. We are too... And we hope that’s you. You should keep reading this job post if... You are a natural leader who loves to build, develop, and bring out the best in the people around you... You love sales – the consultative kind where you genuinely help people make a great decision... You are ambitious… Financially, but also in life. You have big ambitions and goals. You want your work to add to your life – not take from it. You want to love going to work – including the work you do, who you work with, and the values of the company... You work hard, you have strong character, strong values, and you believe in carrying your weight – and you usually even go beyond that. You don’t want to be micromanaged – you want to be empowered. You want opportunities to perform. You love to kick ass in life. You don’t like to half ass anything. You are hungry to learn, grow and develop yourself as a professional… And as a person. And you actively pursue opportunities to do that. You are a badass. If that describes you, and you’re reading this job post – I’m guessing you haven’t found a company that lives up to your own ambitions and expectations. You want more and you’re looking for somewhere that can deliver what you’re looking for (which is rare and hard to find). Now let me tell you what it’s like to work with us… Autonomy : We don’t micromanage people here. We’re all adults; we all have a job to do, and we trust each other to do our jobs. So we don’t manage you, but we do support you. Living True : We believe your work should add to your life, not take from it. We believe you can perform at a high level in your career without sacrificing your personal life. In fact, that’s a requirement for high performance! We expect (and stand for you) to keep work during work hours – and we don’t ask you to work on your personal time. The world says you need to work long hours to be successful – we disagree. Growth Oriented : Elk Horn Painting is a high growth company. We have doubled over the past two years into an 8 figure company. You are who we need for what comes next. We’re also committed to our team members’ growth in their career and life… We all have different ambitions, and we’re committed to providing future growth opportunities to all team members – no matter how big those ambitions are. Training & Development : A lot of companies say they invest in their employees’ training and development. We take that to a new level, and it’s something that gives us a huge advantage in our business. This is how our team produces exceptional results without sacrificing work/life balance. The kind of training and development you experience here will not only supercharge your performance in your work… But will make a lasting and significant impact on the quality of your everyday life. We care deeply about our team members! Our Team : We have a tight knit culture that feels like family. If you get selected for this role, it’s because you’re “one of us”. We work as a team to get things done and produce incredible results that lead our industry. Performance Oriented : We are a culture of performance. It’s all about value creation – it’s all about results. As long as people are producing results, we support flexible schedules, vacations, time off, and time for the things that are most important in life. With me so far? Now let’s get into more of the specifics about our company, what we believe, and what we do…

ABOUT ELK HORN PAINTING

Who We Are : We’re a group of passionate people who care about the work we do, we care about each other, and we are committed to building a market leading company. And a different kind of company… What We Believe : The home improvement industry and the trades are broken. Homeowners all have horror stories about working with their contractors. We may not all be passionate about painting houses – but we sure are passionate about serving people – about providing exceptional service… And we are passionate about creating the kind of workplace and company that impacts people’s lives in a deep and powerful way. We believe the best and most successful business is the business where everyone wins… Where employees LOVE their work, are well compensated, enjoy a work-life balance, have opportunities to grow in their careers. Where customers have an exceptional experience from beginning to end – an experience so great they would brag about it at a dinner party. Where a company gives back to the community in a big way. And we believe when all that happens… The business experiences enormous success. That’s also been our experience. This is the kind of business we are creating… What We Do : We do interior and exterior painting… Both residential and commercial. How we do it is unlike any painting company you’ve ever seen or heard of… And unlike most businesses that exist in the world today.

WE'RE PART OF A NATIONAL ORGANIZATION

Elk Horn Painting is one of many companies that are all connected… We are all a part of National Painting Group, a parent company, with a mission to change the way business is done. We are building market leading painting companies. This is why we are able to provide enormous career growth opportunities… This is a multi billion dollar industry, with no market leaders, a completely broken system… And it’s a subset of the larger home improvement industry with all of the same problems. We’re at an exciting place right now, on the edge of significant growth… Which is why we are looking for YOU. When you work here and you perform well… Not only will there be opportunities to grow your career at Elk Horn Painting… But there will be opportunities for years to come – and we will be your guide to helping you find your passions, develop your unique abilities, and empower you to fulfill your own goals and ambitions (hopefully here with us).
