Landscape Design Sales /Service Account Manager - Landscape Maintenance /Lawn Care

Landscape sales and Service Account Manager

Tired of working for the BIG company where you are just a small fish in a BIG pond?

Tired of promises not kept. Or, are you with a small company going nowhere?

My name is Chip Ashton the owner of Ashton Landscaping Inc. in Virginia Beach, VA and I have a problem and maybe you can help.

I love landscaping, started mowing lawns when I was a kid and grew my company to where it is today. We provide innovative installation and maintenance techniques for individuals and communities who appreciate great quality results.

The problem is we are continuing to grow, and I need another great account manager for my company. This person needs to know the landscape industry from hardscapes to lawncare applications. I’m looking for a mature person who is working as an account manager now. I’m not going to go into all of the skills needed you already know that. What I am going to say is you need a valid drivers license and have a great attitude. I’m looking for a “people person” to add to our, can do it, positive culture.

It would be best if you are familiar with the Virginia landscape environment and willing to undergo a basic background check in accordance with local laws and regulations.

What are the benefits in this position? It’s full time with an annual salary. Don’t worry, I’m going to pay you better than my competition so you’re happy, so you can make our clients happy so I can be happy. And there’s more. You get a company vehicle, medical insurance, major holidays paid, mobile phone, vacation and most importantly, respect.

So, if you want to work in a small pond and be a BIG fish send me your resume and then lets talk.
