Position Summary:

We are seeking a Sales Leader to spearhead our outside sales and partnership development efforts.

Manage and grow those partnerships  so they consistently generate high-quality restoration leads and deepen Rhino’s reputation as a trusted vendor.

Partnership Management:  Build and maintain strong, ongoing relationships with partners, ensuring Rhino Restoration stays top-of-mind and a trusted go-to.

Lead Generation:  Drive consistent, high-quality referrals from your partner network. Account Growth:  Develop strategies to increase referral volume from existing partners through regular check-ins, joint marketing, and incentive programs. Networking & Events:  Attend BNI/chamber meetings, trade shows, and industry events to promote Rhino Restoration and expand our partnership network. Territory Management:  Plan and execute daily/weekly/monthly sales routes across Tampa Bay. CRM Usage & Reporting:  Track outreach, partner activity, and referral pipeline. Provide regular performance updates to leadership. Collaboration:  Work closely with operations for seamless handoffs, ensuring partners and clients have an excellent service experience. Brand Ambassador:  Represent Rhino Restoration’s reputation for quality, integrity, and trust in every partnership.

Qualifications Experience:  5+ years in sales, business development, or partnership management (restoration or related trades preferred). Relationship Skills:  Proven ability to develop, manage, and grow long-term partnerships. Sales Skills:  Hunter mentality, strong interpersonal presence, confidence in cold calling, and ability to close. Leadership Potential:  Desire and ability to eventually recruit, train, and manage sales reps. Professionalism:  Clean-cut, well-spoken, and able to represent the brand to clients and partners. Communication:  Excellent verbal and written communication; builds rapport quickly. Industry Knowledge:  Familiarity with restoration, construction, or property services a plus. Technology:  Proficient with CRM tools and Google Workspace. Transportation:  Valid driver’s license, clean driving record, and reliable transportation (mileage covered).
