The Opportunity
Ready to turn your people skills into a career in sales?

With a steady flow of inbound and qualified leads, you can focus on speaking with customers, understanding what they need and finding the right solution — rather than spending your day searching for leads.

- Build rapport, understand customer needs and recommend the right solutions
- Confidently close sales over the phone and work towards individual and team targets
- Support new customers through their first three months with Cleanaway
- Work with internal teams to resolve onboarding, billing and service enquiries

This hybrid role is currently based on St Kilda Road and will soon move to our Docklands office, conveniently located near Southern Cross Station.
