House Call Home Inspection is looking for a highly motivated, competitive, and relationship-driven Relationship Manager to help grow our presence throughout the Chicago market.
This is not a desk sales position. We are looking for someone who enjoys getting out into the market, meeting new people, building relationships, and creating new business.
The right person will be self-motivated, organized, persistent, and comfortable working directly with real estate agents, teams, brokerages, lenders, and other industry professionals. You should be comfortable walking into a real estate office, introducing yourself to an agent you have never met, asking for the business, and following up until you earn the relationship.
House Call Home Inspection operates in a fast-paced, transaction-driven industry. Our Relationship Manager will be responsible for both winning new relationships and strengthening existing ones, with the ultimate goal of increasing inspection volume and growing House Call's market share throughout Chicagoland.
This is a hybrid/outside sales position, and candidates must live in or near the Chicago market and be available to meet clients throughout the area regularly.
