About the Role

Our Contractor Sales team drives the business-to-business side of Lincoln Creek Lumber, and we're looking for someone who can carry that work forward. This is not a counter job where you wait for orders to come in. It's a full-cycle sales position for a professional who knows the building trades, understands the day-to-day pressures contractors face, and is just as eager to chase down new accounts as to take care of the customers already counting on us.

The right person can study a set of blueprints, turn them into an accurate material takeoff, and then get on the phone to open a new account before the morning is out. If that sounds like you, let's talk.

What You'll Do

• Prospect, cold call, and develop new accounts; we reward people who generate their own momentum rather than wait for it
• Manage a book of contractor and business accounts by building trust, reading what each customer needs, and staying a step ahead of them
• Keep every lead, contact, and sales activity current and accurate in Zoho CRM
• Interpret construction drawings and blueprints to produce detailed estimates and material takeoffs
• Enter estimates and process customer orders through our POS system
• Source vendors, research pricing, and issue purchase orders
• Work hand in hand with shipping, bookkeeping, and other internal teams to keep orders moving smoothly
• Confirm delivery accuracy with yard staff and customers
• Watch customer buying patterns to surface upsell and add-on opportunities
• Keep tabs on competitor pricing, products, and service so our department stays competitive
• Share product knowledge, sales techniques, and system know-how with teammates when the chance comes up
• Carry a radio and stay in contact with the team across the day
• Pick, pull, and pack will-call orders when the situation calls for it
• Uphold company policies and carry yourself professionally in every customer interaction

Who You Are

You bring genuine experience in building materials or construction sales, and it shows. You know lumber, you know the trades, and you understand what a contractor is dealing with on an active job site. That background gives you credibility the moment you walk up to a customer, long before price ever enters the conversation.

You can nurture a years-long relationship with a loyal general contractor and work a cold lead first thing on a Tuesday with equal comfort. You don't sit and wait for the day to get busy; you make it busy. And when someone shows up at the counter with a problem, you're the one who figures out the fix.

You treat your CRM as a working tool because you understand that a clean, well-managed pipeline is the difference between a decent sales year and a strong one.

What We're Looking For

• Proven track record in contractor or building materials sales
• Skill in reading construction drawings and blueprints and turning them into accurate material takeoffs
• Comfort with CRM software; familiarity with Zoho is a plus
• Working knowledge of POS systems and Microsoft Office, including Excel, Word, and Outlook
• Self-directed and accountable, with strong time management
• Clear communicator face to face, over the phone, and in writing
• Trustworthy, professional, and sincerely committed to your customers' success
• Detail-oriented with sound analytical and problem-solving ability
• Valid in-state driver's license and an acceptable driving record
• Bilingual in Spanish, verbal and written, strongly preferred
• High School Diploma or GED required

Physical Requirements

• Able to sit or stand for long stretches
• Able to lift 50 lbs. without assistance
