OUR “WHY SITEWORKS” UNIQUE VALUE PROPOSITION
With Siteworks, the design and details you created with your landscape architect are realized. Our job is to provide the expertise to help the vision come to fruition.
No need to manage multiple independent parties. We are your single point of contact and resource to build your entire project.
Each project is managed by an experienced team. Our field superintendent, whose sole focus is building projects, and the project manger, who watches over costs and material coordination, work seamlessly to insure a smooth process with exceptional communication.
Our craftsmanship and attention to detail ensure that your project will be built for a lifetime of enjoyment and your aesthetic expectations will be exceeded.
Our breadth of experience and knowledge fosters an environment of collaboration and creates opportunities for improving the end result.
The dual role of a contractor is on one hand to protect the client by insuring their investment is not misspent. While on the other not interfering with the quality or visual beauty of the project. We achieve this by working closely with landscape architects to offer, as a resource, our experience.
Clients appreciate how we manage projects. With weekly progress communication and routine schedule updates, all relevant parties are kept abreast of current and future events.
Location: Richmond, CA
Compensation: $100,000 – $150,000 base salary + commission
Company: Siteworks Landscape
Sales Professional Opportunity Overview:
This is a high-impact role for someone with deep landscape construction knowledge, a proven sales track record, and the strategic chops to manage relationships with top-tier architects and general contractors. You’ll be selling large-scale landscape construction projects — typically $1M–$2M+ in size across the Bay Area.
These include a blend of hardscape and softscape scopes, and while 90% of your work will be focused on selling new residential builds, there is a small but strategic hospitality and existing client component of the position as well.
Key Responsibilities
:
Prospect, manage, and close new project opportunities ($2M–$5M+ in Year 1, growing toward $10M–$12M annually).
Manage the full preconstruction sales cycle: from lead development, estimating coordination, bid presentation, to project handoff.
Build long-term relationships with high-end architects, GCs, and owners as a trusted advisor.
Collaborate with estimators, PMs, and leadership to ensure seamless client onboarding and project activation.
Read and interpret complex landscape plans, identify constructability issues, and align scope and budget in preconstruction.
Be present and supportive during the early phases of project execution (first 30 days) and available for problem-solving and collections support throughout.
What You Bring:
5+ years of high-end construction sales experience, ideally in landscape, GC, or designbuild environments.
Deep understanding of both hardscape and softscape construction methods, materials (stone, grates, drainage, lighting, etc.), and sequencing.
Ability to confidently manage preconstruction complexity and communicate technical concepts clearly.
A proven track record of selling and closing 6 and 7-figure high-end landscape projects.
Strong relationships in the architecture, design, or GC communities.
A genuine commitment to world-class client service, construction excellence, and detailoriented planning.
