Base + Commission - On-track earnings of $100k-$110k+

If you're a salesperson who thrives on building relationships, opening doors, and creating opportunities where none existed before, we'd love to meet you. This is a true hunter role.

We're looking for professionals who enjoy prospecting, aren't afraid of hearing "no," know how to get past gatekeepers, and can earn the trust of decision-makers.

You'll identify prospective commercial customers, uncover their needs, develop tailored pest management solutions, and turn new relationships into long-term partnerships. If you're competitive, self-motivated, and driven by the opportunity to control your own income through your performance, you'll find plenty of opportunity to succeed here. As American Pest continues to grow throughout the Mid-Atlantic, you'll have the support of an established, respected company while building a book of business that's entirely your own.
