Sales Territory Manager for Minnesota

Join our Amazing Team - Sales Territory Manager for Minnesota

Woodtone is committed to Building What Matters - manufacturing beautiful products, constructing great homes and developing strong relationships.

Any builder knows that building what matters is more than about having the right tools or an individual mindset. Building something that's truly valuable, that lasts, so often comes down to having people you can depend on, who understand what you need and when you need it, and who can stand proudly behind the work they do. We all want to build a legacy, but the stuff of legacies isn't stuff at all - it's people, trusted partners united by a shared purpose, and the support of people who care. To that end, we don't just produce beautiful, long-lasting building materials, we build relationships that last.

Woodtone manufactures interior and exterior product solutions for the home with an unsurpassed level of quality. We create siding, posts, trim, wood paneling products and more, that are exceptionally beautiful and built to last. Woodtone has been family-owned and operated for 49 years. As a member of our team, you are part of the family. We take pride in providing team members with an unmatched company culture that puts relationships first. Coupled with a competitive salary, bonus, and benefits program, we aim to provide an incomparable employment experience.
