BuildABLE is a local, award-winning renovator - and home to Canada's only nurse-led accessible renovation team. We undertake beautiful bathroom & kitchen renovations, home additions, residential elevators, basements, multigenerational living spaces and more.
We're Looking For:
--> A highly motivated, results-driven Renovation Sales Consultant for BuildABLE's residential renovations.
This is not a typical sales position. This is an opportunity to work in a role that can truly make a difference in people's lives. No, seriously.
Many of our clients live with physical disabilities, mobility challenges or life-altering injuries/illnesses, where home accessibility is critical in developing our renovation concepts. While accessibility knowledge is an asset, we are far more interested in finding someone with integrity who can build trust, understand our clients' goals, and help guide homeowners (and their families) through the renovation process.

This highly autonomous role involves engaging with clients to promote accessible, high-end renovation services. With professionalism and exceptional communication skills - you will:
- Respond promptly to new inquiries + phone consultations with prospective clients
- Schedule and attend in-home consultations in a timely manner
- Share guidance on ideas, and provide tangible renovation possibilities and solutions
- Take detailed measurements and comprehensive notes
- Provide rough budget guidance, preliminary project scopes and initial estimates
- Work closely with our estimating and design team to develop detailed project proposals - and close sales through your exceptional customer service
- Guide product and fixture selections with meticulous tracking of change-orders
- Maintain accurate CRM, lead tracking records & sales process notes
- Attend and assist with (fun!) community events to build relationships & promote the benefits of our renovations

- Experience selling and/or estimating renovation or construction projects, or a strong understanding of residential construction.

- Be able to physically enter and move around inaccessible homes to assess various spaces for potential renovations

It's a bonus if you have:
- Experience with accessibility or aging-in-place renovations an asset (but we can train!)
- Kitchen and bath design experience
LOCATION:
Ottawa and surrounding areas. This is a remote position – start from your home and then on-site with potential clients. Access to meeting space at our facility as needed.
HOURS:
