Role Overview

In the bustling industrial landscape of Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, Cintas Corporation stands as a beacon of reliability for businesses striving to maintain safe and compliant workplaces. As a Service Sales Representative - First Aid and Safety, you'll step into a dynamic role that blends sales acumen with hands-on service delivery. Picture this: you arrive at a manufacturing plant just outside Philadelphia, clipboard in hand, ready to ensure their first aid kits are stocked and their safety equipment is up to code. This isn't just a job; it's a mission to protect workers across the region.

Your day begins with reviewing your route, prioritizing accounts based on urgency—perhaps a construction site reported a depleted eyewash station after a recent incident. You'll drive your company-provided vehicle through the scenic routes along the Schuylkill River, arriving at each stop with a smile and expert knowledge. Customers aren't just clients; they become partners in safety. You'll assess their needs, replace expired bandages and AED pads, service fire extinguishers, and subtly introduce upgraded products that could prevent future accidents. It's sales with a purpose, where every upsell directly contributes to workplace safety and OSHA compliance.

Cintas, headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, has been empowering over one million businesses nationwide for decades. In Conshohocken, our First Aid and Safety division is growing rapidly, serving everything from small offices to large warehouses in the Greater Philadelphia area. This role demands enthusiasm, reliability, and a genuine commitment to helping others stay safe. With a valid driver's license and high school diploma as your entry ticket, you'll quickly find yourself thriving in a performance-driven environment where your efforts translate to real-world impact.

Day in the Life

Imagine starting your morning at 7:30 AM in the Conshohocken service center, a state-of-the-art facility humming with activity. Over coffee, you sync with your team, discussing yesterday's wins—like convincing a local auto repair shop to upgrade their first aid cabinet, boosting their compliance score overnight. Your route today takes you to three manufacturing firms, a construction site, and a new prospect in nearby King of Prussia.

First stop: a food processing plant in Plymouth Meeting. You park, don your Cintas uniform, and greet the safety manager by name. 'Morning, Mike! Let's check that AED.' You run diagnostics, replace the battery, and restock the cabinet with fresh supplies. Spotting an opportunity, you demo our new automated external defibrillator with voice prompts, sealing the deal on an upsell. Lunch is a quick sandwich in your truck while updating your CRM app with service notes and sales data.

Afternoon brings a high-stakes visit to a construction site where OSHA flagged their eyewash station. You flush the lines, test functionality, and certify it compliant, earning grateful handshakes. Wrapping up by 5 PM, you end with cold calls to prospects identified from local business directories. Back at the center, you log mileage, review commissions, and plan tomorrow. It's rewarding, varied, and ends with the satisfaction of knowing you've made workplaces safer.
