Stone Yard Manager - Materials Sales & Operations

We are seeking a motivated and entrepreneurial Stone Yard Manager to drive sales and create business growth at our West Chester, PA stone yard. HEPCO Quarries of West Chester is the premier supplier of landscape and architectural grade bluestone products in the Delaware Valley. We have a strong customer base of builders, architects, designers, landscapers, and masons that make up the local hardscape market.

Why Join HEPCO?

This is an excellent opportunity for the right person to have a meaningful impact on an established stone company. We are looking for someone who doesn't want to just manage a yard, but wants to build something bigger and better. Someone who will be appreciated and rewarded when their efforts and talents help take HEPCO Quarries of West Chester to the next level.

Our candidate will be a sales and service professional who understands or is excited to learn the stone industry. They know how to build and maintain strong customer relationships and are driven to move the business forward by developing new accounts and expanding our market.

A successful candidate will be hands-on and customer centered, while running the business like it is their own.

• Resolve customer concerns quickly and professionally.
• Build long-term relationships rather than focusing on individual transactions.
• Ensure customers leave the yard confident in both their purchase and their experience with HEPCO Quarries of West Chester.

What We Are Looking For

The ideal candidate is someone who is confident, patient, energetic, self-motivated, and hungry to grow a business.

You must be comfortable picking up the phone and calling on potential new customers, be willing to palletize and load material in the yard, or sit down with ownership to develop sales and business strategies.

We are looking for someone who:

• Is at their best working independently rather than waiting to be told what to do.
• Is comfortable selling and asking for the business.
• Has basic computer skills to create emails, invoices, estimates, and sales reports (primarily operating Quickbooks software)

• Has a strong work ethic and leads by example.

What Success Looks Like

Success in this position will be measured by how effectively the individual grows the business. We are looking for someone who can bring on new customers and expand our existing market. Attention must also be given to continuous customer satisfaction and business retention.

Compensation

We offer a competitive compensation package that is dependent on work experience. It includes base salary, sales commission, and a company match 401K plan.

This is a career opportunity for someone who is self motivated and values autonomy. This position is the closest thing to running your own business without the financial risk and constant stressors that come with small business ownership. If you are a hands on sales and service professional with a strong understanding or desire to learn the stone/building-materials industry, we want to hear from you.

Sincerely,

Brad Hepler
