Summary

Overview We're an outsourced estimating company that works with commercial and industrial electrical contractors. We're looking for an experienced, US-based cold caller to work a provided lead list, have real conversations with contractors and estimators, and book short intro calls for our team.

This role is US-based only. Native English speakers who sound natural on the phone with American contractors. Please don't apply if you're outside the US. What you'll do Call electrical contractors from a list we work up together Use our script and talking points as a framework, not a word-for-word read Get past gatekeepers and reach owners, estimators, or preconstruction staff Book 15-minute intro calls into our calendar Log every call outcome and notes daily in our CRM (or a shared sheet) You're a fit if you Are based in the US and speak clear, natural English Have real B2B cold calling or appointment-setting experience Can run a consultative conversation and handle objections live Are organized and report consistently Bonus: any background calling into construction, trades, or contractors Pay Competitive hourly rate, paid for all calling time including the trial Bonus on top for every booked meeting that shows up.
