The Role You Will Play:

As the Outside Sales Representative for Vermont, you will take ownership of a $2.8–$5M territory with a strong focus on increasing lumber sales and strengthening dealer relationships throughout Central and Northern Vermont. This is a true “hit the ground running” opportunity — the expectation is plug-and-play execution with minimal oversight.

You will:
  • Manage and grow relationships with independent lumber dealers and building material customers
  • Drive profitable sales growth across lumber and specialty building products
  • Spend 4 days per week on the road meeting customers (with 1 home office day; 1 in-office visit per month)
  • Deliver market feedback and competitive intelligence
  • Represent a branch that operates with an entrepreneurial, business-owner mindset
    Travel approximately 3–5 nights per month within the territory

This role reports to the Regional Sales leadership team and is ideal for a motivated, high-energy sales professional who thrives in a competitive lumber market and enjoys autonomy.

What You’ll Need:
  • 5+ years of building materials experience (lumber required)
  • Proven outside sales success calling on dealers
  • Strong listening skills and ability to provide thoughtful feedback
  • Self-motivation and the ability to operate independently
  • High school diploma required

Compensation includes a base salary of $48,000–$62,000 plus uncapped commission, with $100K+ OTE potential, full benefits, and an auto allowance through a Motus program.

Company Features:

Our client is a well-established, privately held leader in the building materials industry with approximately $200M in annual revenue. With decades of experience serving the professional dealer network, the organization has built a strong reputation for product availability, competitive pricing, and dependable service.

What sets this company apart:
  • Branch Autonomy: Each location operates with an entrepreneurial mindset, empowering local leadership to make decisions that best serve their market.

  • Strong Product Portfolio: A comprehensive offering of quality lumber, plywood, millwork, and specialty building products designed to support independent dealers and pro customers.
