Are you a self-starter with a professional presence and a drive to build a sales career? We’re hiring an Entry-Level Sales Representative to join a growing manufacturing and distribution company based in Elgin, IL. This is a unique opportunity to take ownership of an existing book of business while learning the ropes of B2B sales—both inside and out in the field.

You’ll get in front of major players in the industry, travel to trade shows, and be part of a collaborative sales team with strong mentorship. If you’re hungry, polished, and ready to dive in, this role can fast-track your sales career.

What You’ll Do:

  • Split your time evenly between inside sales support, outbound sales outreach, and travel to trade shows/customer sites

  • Follow up on and manage a book of ~100 existing distributor accounts, growing business and strengthening relationships

  • Prospect and generate new leads, making cold calls and booking visits with potential customers

  • Represent the company at trade shows across the U.S., visiting 5–6 customers per event and developing new relationships

  • Work closely with brokerage groups and support them in representing your products

  • Learn from experienced sales professionals and hit key milestones (targeting $1M in first-year sales)

What We’re Looking For:

Must-Have Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in business, sales, or related field — or 2–3+ years of sales-related experience, ideally in manufacturing or distribution

  • Strong self-motivation and initiative: you’re not afraid to pick up the phone, ask questions, and jump into the action

  • Polished, professional demeanor — you’ll be client-facing and must make strong first impressions

  • Honest, polite, and accountable — we value integrity over flash

  • Willing and able to travel domestically (via plane) every other week for up to 3 days at a time

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Previous internship or part-time experience in sales

  • Background in sports or competitive extracurriculars — we love teammates with hustle

  • Strong communication skills, a desire to learn, and a positive, coachable attitude

What You Can Expect:

  • On-the-job training from experienced sales leaders

  • Opportunity to grow into managing additional accounts and brokerage partners

  • A fast-paced, hands-on environment with meaningful customer interactions

  • One-on-one interview process — meet with leadership and HR in a single onsite

If you're ready to launch your sales career in an environment that values hard work, integrity, and professional development — apply now!
