The Inside Sales Professional role is a part of our Owens Corning Sales Development Program (SDP) and is designed to recruit outstanding, early-career sales talent through a structured 18-24-month sales development opportunity in the Roofing business.

Throughout the program, SDPs will be members of the Inside Sales team, directly supporting a region, and partnering with Area Sales Managers.
