Role Overview
We are seeking a high-performing
Outside Sales Representative
to develop new business and grow market share throughout the
Greater Detroit / Michigan territory .
This opening reflects a strategic emphasis on business development and measurable field activity. The outside sales function has been clearly defined: consistent prospecting, disciplined territory coverage, and strong in-person customer engagement.
Non-selling responsibilities such as day-to-day service escalations and logistical minutia are handled by internal support teams — allowing the outside sales team to focus squarely on growth and revenue generation.
