Pro Paint Specialist - Woodbridge

Overview

To thrive as a Pro Sales Associate, you must be approachable, organized, and genuinely interested in helping our customers. Some basic computer skills are necessary to use our customer management software. An outgoing personality with a positive attitude will help you start conversations with customers, and being a self-starter will be useful so you can jump in and help wherever you see a need.

No prior experience in paint or sales is required; we will teach you everything you need to know, making this a strong starting point to launch your career.

As our Pro Sales Associate at Behr, you''ll work in a Home Depot store as a sales specialist focusing on professional painting contractors and their unique needs. On your own and with the Pro Desk staff, you''ll meet and form relationships with local pros who rely on Behr for excellent products and exceptional customer service. You will build relationships with pros in the store who may be there for paint, but may also be there for something else.

When an outside rep sends a contractor to you for paint, you will collaborate to get exactly the right products, mix the paint, collect any sundry paint tools they need, and get them in and out of the store quickly so they can get back to work, making our professional customers feel like they had a paint store experience.

Hours will vary based on peak selling times, including weekends, holidays, and shifts that can extend until 7 p.m. We work while consumers shop!
