What are the responsibilities and job description for the Remodeling Sales - Residential position at Gordon Reese Design Build?
Are you a high-energy sales professional with a passion for transforming homes?
Gordon Reese Design Build (GRDB) is looking for an enthusiastic, driven Project
Consultant to join our premier design-build team.
In this role, you aren’t just a salesperson; you are a key ambassador for our brand,
guiding clients through the entire sales and design process to ensure their vision
becomes a reality. You will report directly to the CEO and play a pivotal role in sourcing, qualifying, and closing high-quality remodeling projects that meet our strict standards for excellence.
What You’ll Do
As a Project Consultant, you will manage the full sales and design lifecycle, ensuring every project meets our standards for profitability and customer satisfaction.
- Lead Generation & Sourcing: Actively source new remodeling projects through independent activities like networking events, trade associations, and workshops.
- The GRDB Sales Process: Manage leads from initial inquiry through consultation, proposal, and final contract.
- Project Development: Qualify prospects by creating "ballpark" estimates and collaborating with our Design and Production departments to ensure scopes of work meet client desires.
- Relationship Management: Cultivate lasting partnerships with architects, engineers, trade partners, and local building departments.
- Consultative Sales: Present feasibility studies, design agreements, and construction contracts that align with GRDB’s high standards of quality and constructability.
Who You Are
We are looking for a highly energetic "people person" who balances technical
knowledge with exceptional communication skills.
- Tech-Savvy Strategist: You are proficient with Google Suite, Microsoft Office, and Apple/iOS systems. You are also comfortable using project management and internal sales software to maintain accurate client records and deliverables.
- Aligned with Values: You act with integrity, maintain a professional appearance, and follow company values in every interaction.
- Construction Sales Expert: You have a minimum of 5 years of proven experience in construction sales, specifically within the residential remodeling industry.
- Broad Remodeling Knowledge: You possess a comprehensive understanding of home remodeling—from structural framing and MEP systems to high-end finishes. You can speak fluently about "how a house works" to establish immediate authority with homeowners.
- The "Hunter" Mentality: You are an outgoing, proactive lead generator. You don’t just wait for the phone to ring; you have a track record of sourcing your own opportunities through networking, community engagement, and professional partnerships.
- High-Energy Personality: You are naturally enthusiastic and skilled at building quick, authentic rapport. You enjoy the "consultative" part of the sale as much as the "closing" part.
- Licensed & Local: You hold a valid California Driver’s License and are deeply familiar with the local East Bay/Walnut Creek market.
- Fluent Communicator: You can read construction documents fluently and possess the written and verbal skills required to present complex feasibility studies to discerning, high-net-worth clients
