CertaPro Painters is a leader in the residential and commercial painting industry throughout North America. We are an organization of professional painting contractors specializing in beautifying homes and buildings; interiors, exteriors, commercial, offices, and condominiums. Our success has been built on the foundation of delivering certainty to our customers – certainty of a job well done. We focus on the details of every project and most importantly, we focus on our clients.
Your primary responsibility is simple and powerful:
Build relationships that consistently generate qualified commercial RFPs

This is a high-visibility role with clear performance expectations, meaningful financial upside, and a defined growth path as our commercial division scales.

What Success Looks Like
• Consistently generate 8–12 qualified commercial RFPs per month
• Help bring on 10–15 new commercial accounts annually
• Support accounts capable of $100K–$150K+ in annual revenue
• Fully remove the Owner from commercial prospecting activities
• Serve as the primary growth engine feeding the Commercial Sales Associate

Key Responsibilities:
Proactively identify, prospect, and build relationships with commercial property decision-makers
• Convert new and existing relationships into qualified requests for proposal (RFPs)
• Conduct consistent in-person outreach including client visits, coffee meetings, lunches, and networking events
• Maintain accurate CRM records and prospect pipelines
• Attend and actively participate in Chambers of Commerce, CAI, BOMA, IREM, trade shows, and industry conferences
• Coordinate and host Lunch & Learn presentations and client networking events
• Collaborate closely with the Commercial Sales Associate to ensure smooth RFP handoffs
• Create light commercial content (case studies, social posts, newsletters) to support relationship development

What This Role Is Not (Initially):
• No pricing or estimating responsibility
• No proposal writing
• No closing responsibility

Compensation Structure:
• Base salary
• Commission paid for each qualified RFP delivered to the Commercial Sales Associate
• 1% revenue commission paid in perpetuity on all new commercial accounts generated by this role
• Long-term upside for professionals who build durable client relationships

Ideal Candidate Profile
• Strong relationship-builder who enjoys face-to-face interaction
• Comfortable with proactive outreach, networking, and prospecting
• Experience in B2B sales, commercial services, construction, or property management preferred
• Organized, disciplined, and results-oriented
• Motivated by long-term income growth and ownership of outcomes
• Thrives in a growing, entrepreneurial environment

Why Join CertaPro Painters®
• Industry-leading brand with national credibility
• Clear expectations and measurable success metrics
• Significant long-term income potential without commission-only risk
• Defined growth path into senior commercial growth or sales leadership
• Supportive environment where results matter and are rewarded
