Sutter Home and Hearth is Seattle’s leading retailer of fireplaces, BBQ’s, fire pits, and outdoor living products. Founded in 1979, we are an established local company where you will know all of your fellow coworkers, and where each employee is a name - not a number.
At Sutter Home and Hearth, we are focused on building a team of individuals who consistently display the values of integrity, fortitude, benevolence, and respect. Our environment is one that fosters individuality, creativity, and the flexibility to make an impact. No one is above a given role: when called upon, we are always willing to help our fellow colleagues.
We serve a variety of clients from homeowners to architects: from the historic cottage down the street, to the custom lakefront mansion - and yes, even the skyscraper downtown!
We offer a casual dress code, paid holidays, an uncapped commission structure, and a 25% match on employee 401k contributions after 1 year. We also offer employer-paid medical and dental benefits after 90 days of employment.
We are currently seeking an entry level salesperson who is eager to establish client connections through relationship-based sales. In other words, we want people who want to build repeat business! We do this by offering quality products and top-notch customer service; creating one-of-a-kind solutions to bring our clients’ visions to life.
We are most interested in speaking with ambitious individuals who carry a zest for life and are motivated by learning. We believe hard skills are teachable and are looking for candidates with exemplary soft skills. We encourage people from all backgrounds to apply.

- Gets excited by sales work.
