Ward Plumbing, HeatingAir is looking for a motivated, personable Solutions Advisor to join our team in Sylva, NC.

This is an inside sales position focused on helping existing customers move forward with HVAC and plumbing solutions that have already been recommended by our technicians and Comfort Advisors.

• Check in on the customer's experience and answer questions about options previously presented.
• Identify concerns related to price, timing, financing, or scope and help find appropriate solutions.
• Assist field technicians by phone when they need help closing an opportunity while still with a customer.
• Discuss available financing, membership benefits, and approved savings opportunities.
• Follow up on HVAC replacement estimates presented by our Comfort Advisors.
• Maintain accurate customer notes and follow-up activity.
• Track sales, conversions, and follow-up results.
• Coordinate with our Service, Sales, and Management teams to help customers move forward.

What We're Looking For

• Strong communication and phone skills.
• A friendly, confident, and professional approach with customers.
• Sales or customer service experience preferred.
• Ability to listen, identify objections, and work toward solutions.
• Comfortable discussing pricing and asking for the sale.
• Organized and able to manage multiple follow-up opportunities.
• Comfortable using computers, CRM software, spreadsheets, email, and phone systems.
• Ability to work collaboratively with both office and field team members.
• HVAC, plumbing, home services, or ServiceTitan experience is helpful but not required.

Schedule

This is a full-time, salaried position working approximately 40 hours per week, generally 9:00 AM–5:00 PM, with reasonable phone availability as needed.

This position is based in Sylva, NC. Open to remote work for a well qualified candidate.

Compensation

• $39,520 annual base
• Commission and sales incentives in addition to base salary
• Same-day sales incentives for assisting field technicians
• Commission opportunities for converting qualified HVAC and plumbing estimates

Compensation includes meaningful upside for someone who is effective at following up with customers and converting existing sales opportunities.

About the Opportunity

This is a new position at Ward and an opportunity to help develop an important part of our sales and customer follow-up process. You'll work closely with our Service and Sales teams while helping customers better understand their options and move forward with needed work.

We're looking for someone who can balance sales ability with a genuinely helpful customer experience. The goal isn't simply to discount a job until it sells - it's to understand what is keeping the customer from moving forward, build value in the solutions we've offered, and help find the right path forward.

If you're comfortable on the phone, enjoy working with people, and like the challenge of turning opportunities into results, we'd like to hear from you.
