Job Description

Benefits Start Day 1 for Full-Time Colleagues - No Waiting Period!

For more information about our benefits, see below!

We are proud to be a member of the Rentokil family of companies, the global leader in Pest Control and other services across more than 90 countries.

We pride ourselves on being a trusted partner to many of the world's leading brands and serve consumer and business customers across multiple industries.

We are extremely proud of our legacy of excellence and constantly work to fulfill our mission to "protect people, enhance lives, and preserve the planet."

Three-piece suits. Cold calls in a cubicle. Lone wolves. Nope. Not here.

At Terminix Nation, we view sales as the natural result of building strong relationships and solving customers’ problems.

If you’re nodding your head right now, we’d love to meet you.

Our sales team is the engine that keeps Terminix running. And we reward the team accordingly with a competitive salary and benefits including medical, dental, vision, a 401(k) with company match, and more.

There are also opportunities to get trained, gain new skills, and build an awesome career.

But first things first. When you start in sales at Terminix Nation, you’ll get down and dirty. You’ll learn how to inspect and identify infestations (or conditions conducive to infestations) of all kinds of organisms, insects, birds, or other pests.

Sounds awesome, right? You’ll learn all about what we do and how you can make your clients’ homes safer and their lives better.

Once you know that, you’ll turn your talents to proposals and presentations that result in sales.

As a Residential Sales Professional, here’s what you can expect

You won’t be tied to a desk. You’ll be out and about mobile, independent, and growing your career on your own terms. You’ll be the face of Terminix to your local community (with the backing of a national brand), and your clients will count on you to protect their homes and their families.

When you first join Terminix Nation, you’ll spend a few months in training. Once you’ve got that and some state required licenses and certificates under your belt, you’ll take the lead with your own customers.

You’ll get rewarded with competitive pay and robust benefits to cover you and your family. As a teammate, you will be eligible for a 401(k) with company match, company-paid life insurance, tuition reimbursement, and a generous student loan repayment program.

You put in the work, and you’ll reap the rewards.

You’ll be part of a community bonus points if you’re already a leader in yours. Our bonds are strong at Terminix Nation and the relationships we develop in the communities we serve are unparalleled.

Our teammates give back through volunteering, donations, scholarships, and more.

You’ll be onboarded and trained by the best of ’em. You’ll get paid to get licensed, something you’ll have for a lifetime.

You’ll know how to bust bugs at home, too.

What your days will look like

Hit the books with training modules and hit the streets with on-the-job training with your teammates. You’ll learn product knowledge and sales techniques for selling the full suite of Terminix products.

We’ll train and support you through state licensing and other company requirements.

You’ll inspect and assess pest problems with precision and suggest Terminix solutions following company policy and pricing instructions.

You must be obsessed with the customer’s experience delivering exceptional service, following up to ensure satisfaction, and thinking creatively about how to grow the relationship.

And if an account is delinquent, you’ll need to handle that with grace and effectiveness, too.

Of course, you’ve got to like to sell solutions to problems. You will be expected to meet and greet potential customers to generate new business for the branch.

There’s an opportunity to grow into a role you’re passionate about and fits your skillset whether that’s management or another opportunity at Terminix.

Some non-negotiables

There are some things you’ll just need to have or know to join Terminix Nation as a Residential Sales Professional.

A high school education or GED.

A valid driver’s license from your current state of residence.

Strong social, customer service, and communication skills in fact, we’d be really impressed if you came to this role with related experience and / or training in sales.

The vision to perform detail-oriented activities at distances close to the eyes or within arm’s reach.
