PLANTER’S CHOICE [Posted 5/24/18]

SALES REPRESENTATIVE

We are seeking an energetic, experienced sales representative to help our existing staff push sales for the fast approaching 2018 sales season!

We are a well established grower and re-wholesaler that has heavily invested in new land and infrastructure in the last few years and need a sales/customer service representative to help boost sales.

The successful candidate will:

• Have a positive attitude-we pride ourselves on having a culture of learning and have trained some of the best in the industry.  From how plants are grown, to where they thrive and their aesthetic features in a landscape are some of the points of focus for our staff.
• Have a solid knowledge of how to identify plants used in the area and their cultural preferences.
• Reliably show up every day, ready to work in all weather conditions.
• Be able to life 50+ pounds repeatedly in a fast paced work environment.
• Be willing to assist with projects during slow times-for example, we have a number of hoophouses to put up, container and B&B tree blocks to set up and drainage issues to resolve among other things.

Positive attitude is listed first for a reason.  While we are looking for applicants with experience, our priority is hiring people who are willing to work hard and learn how we do things.
