What are the responsibilities and job description for the Inside Sales position at JClayton?
About Us
Clayton Associates (www.dustlessmadesimple.com) manufactures dust collection equipment and dustless sanding systems for military and aerospace customers. We work with some of the biggest names in the industry—Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and all branches of the U.S. military. We're a family company where relationships matter, and we're looking for someone who shares that philosophy.
The Role
We're hiring an Inside Sales Representative to be the friendly, energetic voice of our company. You'll handle incoming sales calls and emails, respond to requests for quotes, and make sure every customer interaction feels personal—like they're talking to a real person who genuinely wants to help, not reading from a script.
This is an in-office position at our Palmetto, Florida facility. We believe in working side-by-side with our production, manufacturing, and accounting teams—that's how we stay connected and deliver great service.
What You'll Do
Answer incoming sales calls and respond to customer emails and quote requests.
Build relationships with military and aerospace customers—learn their needs and become their go-to contact.
Process orders and follow up on pricing questions, including adjustments based on current pricing and customer discount levels.
Handle occasional customer service issues—listen to concerns, coordinate with our engineers and operations team, and make sure things get resolved.
Keep our CRM (Salesforce) up to date with customer interactions and order activity.
Who You Are
More than anything, we're looking for someone with the right energy and attitude. You're the kind of person who lights up a room—personable, positive, and genuinely interested in helping people. You make customers feel like they're part of the family, not just another transaction.
Energetic and personable. You enjoy talking to people and it shows.
Detail-oriented. You can juggle quotes, orders, and follow-ups without dropping the ball.
A team player. You're excited to work alongside production, manufacturing, and accounting—not isolated in a home office.
Comfortable learning new systems. We use Salesforce for CRM and are rolling out a new ERP system. We'll train you—just bring a willingness to learn.
Nice to Have (But Not Required)
Military experience or familiarity with military/aerospace customers.
Previous inside sales or customer service experience.
Experience with Salesforce or similar CRM tools.
