YJ Maintenance — Senior Account Executive (Outbound Commercial Services Sales)
The Opportunity
YJM and Elevation Exterminating are looking for a high-energy, early-career sales professional who likes opening doors, creating conversations, and winning new business. This is a true hunter role focused on outbound prospecting and closing new commercial service customers—not managing an existing book of accounts. The right person is resourceful, competitive, comfortable hearing "no," and willing to do the consistent daily work required to build a pipeline.
What You Will Sell
You will introduce commercial clients to services provided by YJM and Elevation Exterminating, including:
Facility and property maintenance services
Janitorial and commercial cleaning services
Sewer and drain services
Preventative and recurring pest control services
Additional commercial property services as the businesses expand
What You Will Do
Prospect every day. Build targeted lead lists and conduct high-volume outreach through phone calls, email, LinkedIn, direct mail, walk-ins, networking, and local market visits.
Create new opportunities. Connect with property managers, facility managers, business owners, HOA decision-makers, and other commercial buyers to uncover service needs and upcoming contract opportunities.
Run the sales process. Qualify prospects, schedule site visits, understand needs, coordinate pricing, prepare straightforward proposals, follow up persistently, negotiate within approved guidelines, and ask for the business.
Sell multiple service lines. Identify the best entry point for each prospect and cross-sell relevant YJ Maintenance division services (Janitorial & Commercial Cleaning, Sewer & Drain, Pest Control, and Facility Maintenance).
Work the territory. Develop a focused local market and build route density by targeting clusters of commercial properties and businesses.
Keep the pipeline clean. Record activity, contacts, opportunities, next steps, and expected close dates in the CRM; maintain a consistent follow-up cadence.
Handoff new customers well. Coordinate a clean transition to operations after the sale, including scope, pricing, contacts, timing, and customer expectations.
Learn from the market. Share customer feedback, competitor information, pricing observations, and common objections with leadership and operations.
How Success Will Be Measured

Qualified meetings and site walks scheduled
New opportunities and proposal value created
Proposal follow-up speed and pipeline progression
New customers won and new recurring revenue sold
Close rate, average deal size, and sales cycle
Pipeline accuracy and CRM discipline
Territory penetration and route density
