Benefits:

No Nights

Training and professional development from industry leaders

Locally Owned

Flexibility

Outstanding earning potential

We’re a new local franchise helping commercial kitchens keep walk-ins, reach-ins, and freezers sealed and running. This role is primarily about building the customer base. You’ll prospect restaurants, grocers, and other foodservice operators in Northeast Ohio, turn conversations into orders, and often complete the work yourself. Existing-account inspections and add-on sales are part of the job, but the priority is finding and closing new accounts. Commissions are uncapped.

What you’ll do

Prospect and qualify commercial kitchens in the assigned territory (restaurants, grocery, institutional, and similar)

Generate leads through cold outreach, in-person visits, referrals, and local networking

Present gasket replacement, door sweeps, strip curtains, and related kitchen services

Build a pipeline, follow up consistently, and close business

Perform quarterly inspections and identify add-on work as the existing book grows

Install refrigeration gaskets and related products on site (most jobs are restaurant kitchens)

Coordinate with the owner on scheduling, materials, and larger or follow-on work

Keep clean records of activity, quotes, and jobs

Hit sales targets

What we’re looking for

B2B sales or business-development experience, ideally in a service or trade-adjacent field

Comfortable knocking on doors, making calls, and talking with kitchen managers and owners

Self-directed; able to manage your own calendar and pipeline

Willing and able to do the physical work: gasket installs, basic door/hardware work, time on your feet in kitchens

Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation

Basic hand tools / handyman capability

CRM experience is a plus, not required

Restaurant or commercial kitchen knowledge is a plus
