About The Role

We need someone sharp, organized, and detail-oriented to sit with the sales team and make our operation run cleaner. You’ll work side by side with sales — supporting the day-to-day, keeping accounts in order, and turning the data already in our sales software into something useful. This is a hands-on role with room to take on more as you prove yourself.

What You’ll Do

   • Partner with the sales team on daily operations and customer accounts

   • Pull, clean, and improve the data already in our sales software

   • Use that information to keep orders, invoices, and customer records accurate and current

   • Flag gaps, fix inconsistencies, and help the team work from better numbers

   • Support sales with the admin that keeps deals moving

   • Stay on top of follow-ups, files, and the details that slip through in a busy shop

What We’re Looking For

   • Organized and detail-oriented — this is the job

   • Comfortable working in sales software and spreadsheets, not just looking at them

   • Able to take existing data and make it clearer, cleaner, and more useful

   • Reliable, steady, and good at working alongside a sales team

   • Clear communication, written and spoken

   • Hardware, building-supply, or similar wholesale/retail experience is a plus, not a requirement

Schedule

Full time job, Monday-Friday.

Benefits:

   • Health insurance

   • Paid time off

   • Retirement plan

Ability to Commute:

   • Long Island City, NY 11101 (Required)

• Work Location: In person

Apply with your resume. A brief note explaining how you’ve used sales or customer data is also welcome.
