What do our Account Executives do?

The primary purpose of this role is to sell the company's Commercial Pest Management Services and Products to new and existing Commercial customers, while maintaining a customer-focused service to grow the business. Account Executives call on a full spectrum of market segments including hospitality, food & beverage processing, healthcare, and retail. You will join a results-oriented environment where you will proceed through a comprehensive training program to learn and understand our pest management services and products.

Essential Job Functions :

We’re not going to sugarcoat it. The essential functions of this job have some physical demands (of course, reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.) Here’s what we mean :

You’ve got to be able to move up to 10 lbs. regularly and 11–20 lbs. frequently, whether that’s lifting, carrying, pushing, pulling, or otherwise repositioning objects

You’ll move around a lot — regularly sitting, climbing, balancing, stooping, kneeling, crouching, and crawling. You’ll go up and down stairs, ladders, scaffolding, ramps, and poles. And you’ll need to keep your balance when walking, standing, or crouching on narrow, slippery, or moving surfaces

You must be comfortable dealing with different pests (spiders, flies, mosquitos, rodents, etc.), as well as being required to go into small spaces such as basements, crawl spaces, attics, etc.

You must be able to safely operate a motor vehicle and make sure it and all other equipment is kept clean

Sometimes you’ll need to wear personal protective equipment (PPE), like an OSHA-compliant respirator, and you’ll need to be okay with regularly working in confined spaces, narrow aisles, or passageways (you know, where critters live).

What do you need?

High school diploma or equivalent;

A valid driver’s license from your current state of residence.

Strong social, customer service, and communication skills

Preferred two years of experience in Business to Business sales — in fact, we’d be really impressed if you came to this role with prospecting skills (cold calling, lead generation, networking)

Self-motivated, hunter’s mentality with the ability to work independently

Will be required to obtain any required industry licenses that will be provided and paid for by the company

Travel up to 100% of time within assigned territory(s)
