About the Role

Groundworks is seeking motivated, outgoing, and goal-driven individuals to join our team as Sales Development Representatives.

  • Conduct door-to-door outreach and neighborhood lead generation.
  • Engage homeowners in conversations about foundation, waterproofing, and settlement concerns.
  • Educate homeowners on Groundworks' products, services, and solutions.
  • Identify potential customer needs and generate qualified sales opportunities.

Qualifications

You don't need years of sales experience to succeed here. We're looking for the right attitude, work ethic, and mindset. You are someone who:

  • Is competitive and motivated by achieving goals.
  • Is confident approaching and speaking with people you don't know.
  • Can handle rejection and stay positive when you hear "no."
