Outside Sales Representative; Former Athletes and Veterans

We are looking for a true  hunter  to take over a high-potential territory in Portland, Oregon, for one of North America s largest specialty building materials distributors. This isn t a desk job; you ll be out in the field every day—splitting time between job sites, showrooms, and the warehouse—winning new accounts and building real relationships with architects, builders, and fabricators.

Backed by a massive North American footprint, thousands of employees, and huge market momentum, we hand you the technology, tools, and mentorship to scale your career and build a leadership trajectory fast. You bring the competitive drive and hustle, and we provide a $60K–$70K base plus uncapped commission that realistically pushes year-one earnings to $90K–$100K. If you want to own your market, run your day like a business owner, and climb the ranks of a massive industry leader, this is your shot.

• Open and aggressively grow net-new accounts across your designated Portland territory.
• Quote, negotiate, and close deals with architects, builders, fabricators, and manufacturers.
• Manage a dynamic, field-based schedule, splitting time between your company vehicle, active job sites, showrooms, and the warehouse.
• Serve as the go-to product expert and trusted advisor for your client base.
• Drive continuous market expansion and own your revenue targets.

• Highly competitive, driven mindset with a strong preference for uncapped earning potential over a flat paycheck.
• Natural relationship-builder who thrives in field-facing, customer-first environments.
• Goal-oriented, coachable, and motivated by hitting and exceeding targets.
• Strong written and verbal communicator with solid negotiation skills.
• Organized, forward-thinking, and tech-comfortable (Word, Outlook, Excel).
• Valid driver s license (required for territory travel).
• 5+ years of sales and/or operations experience is a plus, but drive and athletic/military discipline are prioritized.
