Are you a natural relationship-builder who enjoys finding opportunities, winning people over and seeing the results of your hard work?

At VELUX, we're looking for a Sales Representative to grow our Albany territory, build lasting customer relationships and help expand our skylight business.

You don't have to follow a traditional sales career path to succeed here.

Perhaps you're an experienced salesperson ready for greater ownership and the freedom to develop your own market. Or maybe you work in roofing, construction, remodeling or building products and are ready to turn your industry knowledge into a new career.

If you're commercially minded, confident with people and motivated to succeed, we'd like to hear from you.

What makes this opportunity different?

Make the territory your own.
You'll have responsibility for developing your market, finding new customers and growing existing business. You'll identify opportunities, build relationships and see the impact of your work.

Put your people skills to work.
You'll partner with dealers, builders, contractors, remodelers, roofers and architects, helping them find the right VELUX solutions for their projects and their customers.

Build on what you already know.
Bring your sales experience, your knowledge of the building industry, or both. We'll look for your potential to learn our products, understand customer needs and turn opportunities into results.

Enjoy a role that gets you out there.
This is a hands-on, field-based position. You'll spend your time meeting customers, presenting products, developing accounts and building a strong network across your territory.

What will you bring?

We're looking for someone who takes initiative, communicates confidently and enjoys building relationships. You'll be comfortable developing new business, managing your own time and working towards commercial goals.

Experience in sales is valuable, but it's not the only route into this role. If you have a background in construction, roofing, remodeling or another building-related field, your industry knowledge could give you an excellent foundation.

A bachelor's degree or trade school training, combined with building industry knowledge, is preferred.

The role also involves physical activities in real-world building environments, including climbing, reaching, stooping and handling materials weighing more than 50 pounds.

Ready to grow with VELUX?

If you're looking for a role where you can build relationships, develop your commercial skills and take ownership of a territory, this could be your next move.

Bring your experience. Bring your ambition. Let's grow Albany together.

Apply today to become a Sales Representative at VELUX.
