Who We Are
Alpine Tree Service is a high-growth, full-service tree care company serving residential and commercial clients across New Jersey. We operate with a focus onsafety, professionalism, and execution, following ANSI standards and delivering a premium customer experience.
We are not a low-bid tree company.
We sell expertise, trust, and outcomes.
The Role
This is a production sales role for a serious operator.
You will meet clients, diagnose their needs, design solutions, and close work at strong margins. You are responsible for building and managing your own pipeline, not waiting for leads to be handed to you.
If you cannot handle accountability to numbers, pipeline discipline, and follow-through, this role will expose that quickly.
What You’ll Do
Meet with residential and commercial clients to assess tree care needs
- Diagnose issues (health, risk, structure) and recommend appropriate services
- Build and manage a consistent, self-generated pipeline (referrals, networking, repeat clients)
- Prepare accurate, professional proposals and job scopes
- Clearly communicate pricing, timelines, and expectations
- Track all activity, follow-ups, and revenue in CRM
- Collaborate with Operations to ensure jobs are executed properly
- Own your numbers: revenue, close rate, average job size, and margin
Core Expectations (What Actually Matters)
1. You Produce
This is not a “relationship manager” role. You are expected to close business consistently.
2. You Own the Pipeline
Leads help, but top performers generate their own opportunities.
3. You Follow Through Relentlessly
Missed follow-ups = lost revenue. That’s on you.
4. You Think Like an Advisor, Not a Bidder
We are not competing on price. You must sell value, risk mitigation, and expertise.
5. You Improve Constantly
Tree knowledge, sales skill, and efficiency, this role rewards those who actively level up.
