What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sales Professional position at Altitude Development Group?
Our sales team is expanding, and we're on the lookout for an ambitious and dynamic individual who is seeking to elevate their career! If you're a high-achieving sales professional with a track record of success who is feeling capped out or financially restricted in your current company or industry, we want to speak with you! While we value prior sales or leadership experience, particularly in competitive industries, it is not a prerequisite; we want to hire and train the individual who is the best overall fit for the role and our company culture, regardless of background or experience. We're focused on finding someone who resonates with our company core values of Ownership, Growth, and Service.
At Altitude, we're committed to your professional development. Our comprehensive training covers both virtual classroom sessions and hands-on guidance from a dedicated mentor in your designated sales territory. Your mentor will not only walk you through the business sales cycle but also provide training on advanced sales techniques and skills.
