Sales Executive (Asphalt Paving / Heavy Civil)
Description

Company: Caliber Paving - Established California-based contractor expanding into Arizona


About the Role

We are expanding into the Phoenix market and seeking a driven, construction-savvy Sales Executive to help build our presence from the ground up.


This is a true paving sales role — not sealcoat and striping. You will be responsible for developing business, walking job sites, estimating work, and partnering with operations to successfully launch projects.


This is a high-impact opportunity for someone who understands how asphalt work is built and wants to play a key role in growing a new market.


Responsibilities

  • Build and grow a book of business in the Phoenix market
  • Prospect and develop relationships with property managers, general contractors, HOAs, municipalities, and private owners
  • Perform job walks, assess site conditions, and define project scope
  • Prepare accurate estimates and proposals (OneCrew)
  • Secure profitable work across asphalt paving, patching, milling, grading, and related services
  • Maintain a strong pipeline and consistent bid activity
  • Partner with operations to ensure smooth project handoffs and execution

What Success Looks Like (First 12 Months)

  • Build and maintain a strong pipeline aligned with branch growth goals
  • Generate consistent meetings, site walks, and bid opportunities
  • Win profitable work at target margins (approximately 35%)
  • Deliver accurate scopes with minimal handoff issues
  • Help establish the Phoenix office as a trusted and professional contractor


What This Role Is Not

  • Not a sealcoat or striping-only sales role
  • Not a position for someone who cannot assess job sites or understand construction scope
  • Not a fit for candidates who rely heavily on others to estimate or scope work
  • Not a fit for candidates who prefer a highly structured, fully built-out market
Requirements

Qualifications

  • Proven experience selling asphalt paving work (required)
  • Background in paving, heavy civil, or sitework
  • Ability to walk jobs, assess conditions, and build accurate estimates
  • Strong business development and relationship-building skills
  • Comfortable working in a build-mode environment
