Midwest Comfort Heating & Cooling is a locally owned and operated HVAC company that has served the Des Moines Metro since 2007.
Our reputation has been built by taking care of customers honestly, providing quality workmanship, and helping homeowners make informed decisions without unnecessary pressure. As demand for our services continues to grow, we are looking for an experienced Residential Comfort Advisor to help homeowners evaluate their heating and cooling needs and choose the right solution for their home, budget, and comfort goals.
This is not a cold-calling or door-to-door sales position. You will meet with homeowners who have requested an estimate, been referred by one of our service technicians, or contacted Midwest Comfort about replacing or upgrading their HVAC system.
Competitive base compensation plus commission and performance incentives.
Total earning potential will depend on experience, sales performance, and seasonal demand.

We are looking for someone who understands that strong sales and honest customer service are not opposites.
The right person will be motivated to close business, follow up consistently, and meet performance goals while still giving homeowners the time and information they need to make the right decision. Our Comfort Advisor should be able to confidently recommend replacement when it is appropriate without making every appointment feel like a sales pitch.
At this time, preference will be given to applicants with previous HVAC, home-services, or in-home sales experience.
