Inside Sales Representative

The Inside Sales Representative drives customer retention and growth by converting corporate-generated leads, managing a portfolio of small to medium-sized accounts, and creating new opportunities within the existing customer base.

This role owns opportunities from inquiry through quote, order, and post-shipment follow-up, with an emphasis on speed, competitive solutions, disciplined follow-through, and an exceptional customer experience.

This is an ideal development role for a motivated sales or service professional who wants to strengthen technical, commercial, and account-management skills that can lead to a future outside sales opportunity with RLG.

During onboarding, this role may have more consistent travel to regional plants to support training.
