Atlantic Shores Heating & Cooling is a family-owned HVAC company serving Hampton Roads since 1995. We are growing and looking for an experienced HVAC professional who understands residential systems and is ready to use that knowledge in a customer-focused sales role. This is not a high-pressure sales position built around scripts and pushing equipment. Our Comfort Advisors are expected to understand the home, identify what is actually happening with the HVAC system, educate the homeowner, present appropriate options, and help the customer make an informed decision. If you have strong HVAC field experience, communicate well with homeowners, and are ready to move into a role where your technical knowledge directly impacts company growth, this may be a strong next step.

Ask questions to understand the homeowner's priorities, including comfort, efficiency, budget, indoor air quality, noise, and long-term goals. Develop accurate replacement recommendations and proposals using Atlantic Shores pricing and approved equipment options. Verify equipment availability, compatibility, sizing, accessories, and installation requirements before presenting proposals. Present replacement options clearly and professionally without using high-pressure sales tactics. Explain available financing options and help qualified customers understand their choices. Ask for the sale and guide customers through the decision-making process. Maintain accurate proposal information, photos, notes, equipment data, and customer communication in our CRM. Follow up consistently on open proposals until the opportunity is sold or closed. Coordinate closely with the installation and office teams to ensure a complete and accurate handoff. Protect company gross-margin standards while providing customers with appropriate solutions. Maintain communication with customers throughout the replacement process.
