About Roto-Rooter

Roto-Rooter's company-owned branches sell the big-ticket jobs that a plumber's visit uncovers, and they hire a dedicated field seller for each kind. Excavation reps run a camera down the customer's sewer line, find root intrusion or a broken pipe and quote the dig-and-replace job; water restoration reps measure moisture after a leak or flood and sell the demolition, drying and repair, often priced to the homeowner's insurance guidelines. Both work leads handed over by the branch's service technicians and the company's call centers rather than cold calls, quote from a set pricing matrix, close in the customer's home or building, collect payment and drive on to the next call, on schedules that can include nights, weekends and holidays; no plumbing background is required, though in-home outside sales experience is preferred. On the commercial side, entry-level business development representatives canvass job sites and businesses in their branch's territory, visit property and facility managers in person and sell plumbing, drain, excavation, water cleanup and water quality work plus preventative maintenance and priority service plans, logging each visit in Salesforce. Branch sales managers carry a monthly and annual quota while coaching the sales and service team, and the Cincinnati home office's national sales department hires customer success leads who handle commercial escalations through clients' maintenance management systems.

If one of these employers pays a referral fee, it comes from them when you apply here, and your offer stays exactly the same.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.
