  • Collaborate with sales, inventory, and operations teams to ensure successful execution of events by providing necessary information.
  • Educate clients about all available rental items and cross-sell other products.

This is a full-time, salaried position with a base salary of $40,000 plus additional commissions. You will enjoy Monday-Friday 9am-5 : 30pm working hours, with monthly after-hours industry events (providing the opportunity to be part of events while still having most evenings and weekends free).

We also offer paid time off, health, dental, and vision benefits, as well as a 401K plan.
