SALES SPECIALIST

We are seeking a Sales Specialist to join the QW team! At QW, your primary role will include sales efforts as well as a variety of sales related administrative tasks. Responsibilities will include sales support projects, keeping the sales floor neat and organized and of course, talking with customers! A top-notch sales team is of utmost importance and you will be encouraged to utilize your creative energy and talent. We are a local, family owned company looking for an energetic and outgoing person to fill this exciting role. While retail sales experience, and/or design experience is helpful, it is certainly not required to apply. Bachelors level education or higher is desired but not required.

HAND CRAFTED FURNITURE

QW Furniture specializes in upper end, Hand Crafted Furniture. You can feel great about the quality and upstanding nature of the products we provide and the way we do business. You will never be asked to sell something of poor quality to an unobserving customer. We feel our merchandising creates an ideal environment for sales people and marketers to thrive! We provide all the training and support needed to set up everyone on our team for success.

HOW WE DO THINGS

Our Sales Specialists are not compensated via direct commission. We utilize a sales commission share program that allows all of our team to work in lockstep together. Because of this, we never have inter-staff commission related conflict. We think that a positive, collaborative culture creates a much more enjoyable workplace environment. And, our commission share program allows all our staff to reap the rewards of a busy and successful month and allows for 'upside' compensation potential.
