Job Title: Sales Representative

Work Location: In-person / field-based (Twin Cities Metro Area)

JMJ Painters is a growing home services company serving the Twin Cities Metro Area, known for high-quality craftsmanship, trusted trade relationships, and a client-first approach.

This role is ideal for a self-starter with experience in home services sales and a strong network within the trades, real estate, property management, or construction ecosystem.

While JMJ will continue to generate inbound leads, success in this role will come from proactively developing new business, leveraging existing relationships, and expanding our presence with general contractors, property managers, and commercial clients. This role blends sales execution with true business development ownership.

BONUS QUALIFICATIONS

OPPORTUNITIES FOR GROWTH

This role offers the opportunity to grow into a senior business development or sales leadership position as JMJ expands. High performers will have the ability to influence future sales strategy, mentor additional sales reps, and take ownership of key accounts and territories.

COMPENSATION
