Director of Retail Sales

Description: Randal Retail Group is a manufacturer of custom, permanent retail store fixtures and millwork.
We work with national retailers and restaurants who are adding and remodeling stores.
We partner with the retailers’ construction department, and offer a program that assists them from design, through millwork installation, to store opening; saving our clients time, money and headaches.
We are a family-owned and operated company, with about 80 employees, and have been in business for over 35 years.
Most of our competitors cannot offer the full range of products and services we can; which includes shipping and a national installation & maintenance program, for true one-stop shopping.
We become an extension of our clients’ departments and a trusted advisor, resulting in multi-year contracts and relationships.
Our experience with managing store projects sets us apart, and gives our clients peace-of-mind, knowing stores will be done on-time and on-budget.
Our office/factory is in the Chicago suburbs.
We operate as a team/family and everyone gets involved with projects, to ensure we’re offering the best product and service as possible.
You will set appointments with prospective customers all over the US, using cold-calling, networking, LinkedIn, referrals and tradeshows.
Typical travel would be 3-4 nights per month, but will vary during certain times of the year.
This is a salary (competitive, based on experience), plus commission, position; with six-figure compensation very attainable.
You will be given ongoing sales training and support.
All expenses are company-paid, and there is a full benefit package.
